Mirko, what particularly intrigued me were your comments about OSGi and
how it conflicts with JCas. I had actually hoped that OSGi would help
us solve some of our JCas problems.
The work done here with OSGi convinced me that distributed type
definition is
incompatible and should be eliminated. Instead, UIMA should have type
system
objects containing one or more type defintions and their associated
JCas classes.
Type system objects would be a good fit for OSGi, and be more consistent
with
the concept of types being shared between different analytic components.

Eddie, can you elaborate? What do you mean by "type system objects"?
