> Reporter: Richard Eckart de Castilho
> Assignee: Richard Eckart de Castilho

> The UIMA cookbook describes how to detect containment/overlap of annotations.
> It would be nice to have convenience methods on AnnotationFS for such cases:
> * ann.contains(otherAnn)
> * ann.overlaps(otherAnn)
> * ann.overlapsLeft(otherAnn)
> * ann.overlapsRight(otherAnn)
