I was pointed to an issue with the uimaFIT Maven Plugin that we have since ... well, since forever. It is not able to resolve import-by-name in typesystem descriptors if the imported descriptor comes from a dependency and not from the module where the plugin is declared.
If I do not find a workaround, I'll probably cancel this vote, fix the issue and call for a new one... I'll get back to you... -- Richard
