Also, have a look at: http://www.apache.org/dev/ for more info. It
would be helpful if all people (esp. GSOCers) who plan on contributing
code file a CLA (http://www.apache.org/licenses/#clas) although it is
not explicitly required, just makes things a bit nicer for us on the
legal side.

Welcome aboard!
We had a lot of very nice proposals, including a couple that were,
unfortunately just below the cutoff. We (the ASF) had originally
hoped to get more slots from Google, but they had an even bigger
response from other projects as well. As it were, Mahout alone had
something like 15 applicants, most of which were high quality and
well-thought out. For those who didn't get selected, please do feel
welcome here with the rest of us "volunteers" :-).
To those accepted, do try to keep in mind that we should keep
project discussions on the list. I think it is fine to ask mentors
questions in private related to administrative stuff, but if you
have questions about how to code something, etc. those are best
handled on this list, as it creates a history and allows others to
understand design decisions, etc.
Cheers,

Hi Everyone,
This is one of those days where I wake up and see
that I
have got accepted to GSoc with Mahout (:32-all-out:) . I am really
excited
to kick start the work. I know I have a lot to understand in terms
of coding
practices, the whole workflow/process. And i would like to
congratulate and
say hi to my fellow Gsoc'ers Farid, Yun and Abdel, Hi to my mentor
Ian
Holsman and to rest of the community.
I am usually online of google talk: if you use it do add me:
