Dear R community,

For users interested in recommendation engines, I would like to announce
the release of a new package called Myrrix on CRAN (
http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/Myrrix/).
Myrrix is a complete, real-time, scalable clustering and recommender
system, evolved from Apache Mahout.
It uses Alternating Least Squares to build recommendation engines. For more
information, visit http://myrrix.com.

The R package called Myrrix (http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/Myrrix/)
provides S4 classes and methods to communicate and build either locally
recommendation engines or connect with recommendation engines running on
top of Hadoop.
For an example, have a look at

happy recommending,
Jan
