Sounds good to me, I agree 1.5.2 should be backward compatible, eventually
leaving the "old way" in 1.6.x.
Currently we have a set of train methods which all take the number of
iterations
and the cutoff. Only the POS Tagger train method has the ability to also
take a
model type parameter.
I will add a new set of train methods which take a param object instead
of the
iterations and cutoff. We could then decide the deprecate all the old
train methods.
The cmd line interface can also additionally accept a parameter file,
but the iterations
and cutoff arguments will stay in place until 1.6.
I started working on it already and did a couple of tests with the name
finder and
perceptron instead of maxent.
