Joern Kottmann commented on UIMA-2470:
--------------------------------------
+1 to import it as it is. In my opinion all the work which needs to be done to
get it into a release able state is best done in our repository.

> 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.
