Hi Andreas!
By the time of Debconf7 I was far away from this subject and I missed
the talk :-/
I'll try to find the video record of it, I'm really interested on those results!

Paul, thanks for pointing me this!
I'm CCing Alain, maybe he can tell us more about it, since the links
to the project seem to be broken and I couldn't find more info on the
web.

I didn't start working with data mining techniques yet. It would be
awesome to join Alain's effort to mine, which is more focused on
information retrieval and machine learning for recommendation
purposes.

Cheers!

Tássia.
