Hi all,
A long time ago, we decided to move unresolved issues which we do not
see to be going into the next release to a special fix version called
"Backlog". We wanted to keep those issues open to give contributors a
chance to return and finish their work. A lot of stuff has been
accumulated there and work has stalled on that, mostly because people
did not come with updated patches or did not fix issues with their code.
I think the "backlog" approach has not proven to work, therefore I
suggest we simply close all those issues to not have them "pollute" our
jira. We can always reopen them if someone wants to restart working on them.
I went through the issues and compiled a list of things that we should
close. If there are issues that you want to pick up and fix, please
shout, otherwise I will close the tickets one week from now.
Here's the list:
MAHOUT-525 Implement LatentFactorLogLinear models
MAHOUT-627 Baum-Welch Algorithm on Map-Reduce for Parallel Hidden Markov
Model Training.
MAHOUT-668 Adding knn support to Mahout classifiers
