Would be easy to set up: needs a Recommender with a no-arg

Yeah, I was thinking we could do this w/ several of the Taste
examples, and just have the JAR be taste-examples.jar
The Netflix data set is much much larger: the code has to choose to
use only
about 1% of the data or else the memory requirement passes a
gigabyte, which
is probably too much for a casual demo. It isn't really a
recommender that
uses the whole data set, so maybe that is why I didn't set it up as
a proper
demo.
OK
There is more code in there which was bits of a more sophisticated
effort
which is suitable for running in batch on a big machine - not demo
friendly.
Good to know

Hi,
I see there is a Netflix recommender for Taste checked in. Is there
directions some where for running it? Something akin to the Group
Lens
instructions would be pretty cool.
Seems like we could package up a JAR just like group lens, but I'm
not sure
about where to put the data, etc.
