I added Joern to the UIMA committers list in Jira. Joern, it seems that you have two user accounts in Jira, one called "joern" and one called "kottmann". Is that right, or am I just showing my lack of Jira knowledge? If this is right, you may wish to delete one of them (the "joern" account is the one you seem to have used, and it's the one that I added to the committers group).
Also there is a Jira group called uima-developers that Joern is not part of. I'm not sure what purpose this group serves. Anybody know? --Thilo
