FWIW, looking at this RC...

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp/mahout$ md5sum apache-mahout-0.1.tgz
71325edfef9b3f591973e7e7a13d0385  apache-mahout-0.1.tgz

...i don't have JAva 6 installed so i couldn't test re-compilation or
running any of the examples, but i do have some ocmments on the contents
of the release...

1) is the included README intended to have "TODO" as the entire
"Getting Started" section ?

2) the javadocs list the version as: 0.1.2008.09.29.20.57.15 ... looks
like the specversion property wasn't set when they were generated.

3) core/build.xml has javadoc.years set to "2006 - ${year}" ... none of this code is as old as 2006, correct? so i don't think that's legitimate
to claim.

4) lib/ contains junit-3.8.2.jar but junit is not mentioned in NOTICE.txt ... I'm also pretty sure the JUnit license is suppose to be included in
LICENSE.txt (not lib/junit-LICENSE.html)

5) ditto #4 for everything in core/lib and example/lib that isn't already included in NOTICE.txt and/or LICENSE.txt as appropriate (i don't know what most of those jars are, maybe they are mostly accounted for, but at a
minimum I don't see easymock mentioned)

6) the only javadocs i see pre-built are in docs/api/ and they seem to corrispond with core/src/main/ .. should there be pre-built javadocs for
examples/src/main/ as well?

7) it seems really bad that there is *zero* documentation provided beyond the javadocs ... particularly considering the javadocs have no top level
info (ie: there is no overview.html in core/src/main/java/)

There isn't even a single link to mahout homepage or wiki *anywhere* in
the release...
