Does that mean cTAKES is not going to work? My PhD research depends on it. Is there anyway we can get cTAKES working without the need to authenticate UMLS? as Gres suggested, can we just download NLM model and use cTAKES offline compeletely? Thanks

I assume this will affect the API call to NLM for UMLS validation? If it does, why not take the NLM's model for UMLS and only require UMLS credentials at the time of download?
