Richard Eckart de Castilho commented on UIMA-2470:
--------------------------------------------------
A code drop package has been prepared at
http://code.google.com/p/uimafit/downloads/detail?name=uimaFIT-grant-staging-rev-919.zip
We are now waiting for an OK from the UIMA team regarding the contribution
package format. If the format of the package is accepted by the UIMA team,
we'll create the corresponding paperwork, otherwise we will create a new
package respecting the feedback form the UIMA team.
Since the CLA and SGA documents need to include a hash to clearly identify the
code drop package and since multiple parties are involved in the process, we
believe this is the logistically most viable procedure.

> uimaFIT provides Java annotations for describing UIMA components which can be
> used to directly describe the UIMA components in Java code without the need
> for traditional UIMA XML descriptors. This greatly simplifies refactoring a
> component definition (e.g., changing a configuration parameter name). uimaFIT
> also makes it easy to instantiate UIMA components without using XML
> descriptor files by providing convenient factory methods. This makes uimaFIT
> an ideal library for testing UIMA components because the component can be
> easily instantiated and invoked without requiring a descriptor file to be
> created first. uimaFIT is very useful in research environments in which
> programmatic/dynamic instantiation of UIMA pipelines can simplify
> experimentation. For example, when performing 10-fold cross-validation across
> a number of experimental conditions, it can be quite laborious to create a
> different set of descriptor files for each run, or even a script which
> generates such descriptor files. uimaFIT is type system agnostic and does not
> depend on (or provide) a specific type system.
