Sean Owen commented on MAHOUT-345: ---------------------------------- Sounds like a great idea. I know nothing of Drupal but ought to know most about Mahout and recommenders together. If you're wanting to lead this charge to develop and improve your integration, I'd gladly provide input -- this is more of a Drupal task than Mahout? Maybe you can start by talking about what about your current integration could be improved. Quality, performance? Talk about the nature of the data -- how do the number of users and items tend to relate? I can suggest the ways to approach architecting the recommender. > [GSOC] integrate Mahout with Drupal/PHP > --------------------------------------- > > Key: MAHOUT-345 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-345 > Project: Mahout > Issue Type: Task > Components: Website > Reporter: Daniel Xiaodan Zhou > > Drupal is a very popular open source web content management system.
