Chris A. Mattmann commented on TIKA-1787:
-----------------------------------------
Great work as a start, [~Yueheng]! The thing is directly binding to the
library isn't possible due to the NLTK license (GPL):
http://nlp.stanford.edu/software/CRF-NER.shtml#Download
However, we can include NLTK in the form that [~thammegowda] did in #61 on
Github - that is - he and I talked about a command line invocation of the tool
that we could host on Github and then have Tika call it at runtime which means
we wouldn't have to bind to the license.
Let me think about this. Thank you!
