Hi Sorami, Yes, JuliaText is meant to be the repository of Julia NLP packages and I agree with you about Julia's potential in the NLP domain. There hasn't been a lot of action there since I think there aren't many people using Julia for NLP yet (although I hope that changes). Any contributions you wanted to make would be most appreciated.
