Aliaksandr Autayeu commented on OPENNLP-544:
--------------------------------------------
Jörn, good points, I agree. You have a broader view, thank you! I didn't think
about backward compatibility. I'd add there fixing span semantics and moving to
interfaces to the 1.6 feature list. Often interfaces allow one to save memory
(or at least alloc\free) by combining objects.
> Added an interface for opennlp.tools.util.Span
