I wasn't thinking of following that example. But I hope that there will be a way that for some time uimaFIT and Apache uimaFIT components can just peacefully coexist - even for people which cannot just recompile their codebase. Switching to the Apache version shouldn't involve much more than changing the dependency and doing a global "Organize Imports" I think. As I said, I'll dig into that. -- Richard -- ------------------------------------------------------------------- Richard Eckart de Castilho Technical Lead Ubiquitous Knowledge Processing Lab (UKP-TUD) FB 20 Computer Science Department Technische Universität Darmstadt Hochschulstr. 10, D-64289 Darmstadt, Germany phone [+49] (0)6151 16-7477, fax -5455, room S2/02/B117 [email protected] www.ukp.tu-darmstadt.de Web Research at TU Darmstadt (WeRC) www.werc.tu-darmstadt.de -------------------------------------------------------------------
