Jake, care to add some appropriate brief mention to
https://cwiki.apache.org/MAHOUT/powered-by-mahout.html ? Knowing that
Twitter make serious use of Mahout adds a lot of credibility to the
project, and I'm sure would be enough additional information to tip
various others over into more seriously considering adoption. I
thought about linking your previous email mention of it, ... but you'd
know better what to say and/or link to.

cheers,

Dan
