This a great idea/project! I am primarily a PHP developer and was wondering
how I would use mahout in a project that I have had in mind for a while.
Thank you for this. Whatever changes I make if any I will give back. Keep
up the good work.

Dear Simon,
thanks for informing us.
I am now evaluating Prediction.io for creating a reccomandation system.
However as I see the license is an Alfresco Limited one.
So I do not understand what are the limitation.

Alfresco is something else.
It does imply that if you provide someone access to a custom version of the
engine, then you must provide the sources. But is only about the engine ie

Dear Bertrand
Yes, that was what I understood.
But for me I miss a step.
Let us take a practical example.
I use SlopeRecommender engine and I implement its policy on how to
evaluate the similarity.
In this case I made a custom version on the engine right?
The SKD is not customize. So my
I looked at the docs and the AGPL for the server is a problem for me—maybe even
a blocker. Since the SDK is useless without the server, this may be a problem
for you.
I like the SDK, idea. The alternative is logfiles to store prefs (not a bad
architecture really) and a grow your own method for
Dear Piero,
The AGPL is to encourage people who develop on PredictionIO contributes
back to the open community, even though they are using it to offer cloud
services. We are seriously looking into the possibility of making custom

Thanks for the feedback. Happy to discuss how we can resolve the AGPL
limitation for your work.
There are a few Ruby gem for PredictionIO, contributed by developers as
well as supported by PredictionIO team, that you can choose from. We hope
that the UI can assist developers manage the data
AGPL is a complete show-stopper for contributions even for dependencies.
Apache software can't critically depend on GPL components of any sort.
As such, it doesn't make any sense to have components of Mahout designed to
run only on a server that is AGPL.

Hi,
After a year of work, I would like to present PredictionIO project (
https://github.com/PredictionIO) to this community.
When a few of us were doing PhD study, Mahout was the de facto Java package
that we used in many research work. This is a very powerful algorithm
library, yet we see that
