Completing the ClusterDumper jira will allow for visual inspection of the Dirichlet models and extracting some useful information thereof; arguably not too useful with 1793-element vectors but this is also true of kmeans clusters with 1793-element center vectors. With no terminating conditions, selecting the particular iteration to inspect is also an issue unique to Dirichlet. MAHOUT-236 has been around for a while and, as Jake notes below, is really needed.

This isn't far from true.  I was just thinking something along the same
lines, but phrased a bit differently.

My thought was that if the concept and output is sooo different, will users
be able to use it even if the dumper is made to work well?

 Without this final step, this seems very much like an unfinished feature,
to the point of being unusable.
