Hi all,
I got right now the OK of our legal department, after exactly 7
months... don't ask ;-)
We would of course still like to contribute the system to Apache UIMA,
if the development team is interested.
It's maybe prudent to incrementally contribute the different parts of
the TextMarker system, e.g., starting with the rule engine after I
reimplemented it in August. Afterwards, if there is interest in the
Eclipse IDE, then I'd switch to DLTK 2.0 or 3.0 before contributing it.
I'm looking forward to your thoughts and opinions.
Why not contribute everything at once?
We have a sandbox where it can stay until it (or pieces of it) are in a
release-able state.
I believe it is actually a disadvantage when you decide to develop the
eclipse plugin outside
of Apache for a while, just to bring it into a state which you feel
should be contributed.
Because this way the knowledge about it also stays outside.
