Installed on Postgres 9.6 on MacOS using dmg. Checked out the new additions to the summary function. Looks good. My vote: +1 (binding).
Some comments aside from the vote: - I followed this link in the email: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MADLIB/MADlib+1.14 and then from there clicked on https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/madlib/1.14/ which gives a page-not-found error. - I didn't see a link to documentation associated with this release - it would be useful to have that also available (let me know if it was in the email and I missed it or if it is not standard practice). For instance, I wanted to briefly look at the new balanced datasets module and it would have been easy to look it up in the web version of the docs. I did find the docs through the function call e.g. madlib.balance_sample('usage') but that requires knowing roughly what function name to look for (not hard in this case but I can imagine other situations where it might not be straightforward) Great to see all the new features and bug fixes!
