Alexandre Rafalovitch commented on SOLR-11694: ---------------------------------------------- Here is a couple of decision points that went into this: # I made a call for UIMA use cases on the Solr Users mailing list and got zero positive replies. # UIMA version 2.8 was released in May 2016 # The current version of UIMA is 3.x, with a completely different infrastructure # We had integration points that no longer worked for very long time # I think you probably can still use UIMA as your own custom module, most of the integration I deleted was to get it to build and ship (and all the dead examples). I would say a contribution that upgrades UIMA to the latest 3.x version with at least rudimentary example/documentation would be viewed positively. However, it does not seem to be what is being offered here. So, I am -0 on the proposal to just reverse. Others may have a different opinion. > Remove extremely outdated UIMA contrib module > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-11694 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-11694 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Improvement > Security Level: Public(Default Security Level.
