Hivemall

Hivemall is a library for machine learning implemented as Hive
UDFs/UDAFs/UDTFs.

Hivemall has been incubating since 2016-09-13.

Three most important issues to address in the move towards graduation:

  1. Create the first Apache release
  2. Community growth (committers and users)
  3. Documentation improvements 

Any issues that the Incubator PMC (IPMC) or ASF Board wish/need to be
aware of?

  Help would be required for IP clearance (being ready)
