Hi Tim,

There is code scattered all throughout ctakes to handle various easy ways, 
starting or stopping at different levels of information - I think that you may 
have actually created some of the best of it (ctakes to anafora maybe?).

I started working on a document bundle created from discovered mentions, 
placing relations (including coref) in arrays of object references.  This is 
different than the DeepPhe approach which uses a coalescence of ctakes types to 
represent a single concept.  It would be nice to (at some point) migrate that 
into ctakes, perhaps after the next DeepPhe release.

It should be able to produce both json and xml output.  I will place it in 
sandbox (later) for you and Gandhi and anybody else that wants to take a look.

[SUSPICIOUS]

Great, that's very helpful.

I'll be happy to help with extracting the information needed from the CAS the 
easy way. Sean, am I remembering right that there was an API started for that 
somewhere? Or maybe that was part of DeepPhe?
