* We have had some earlier discussions about changing
our release packaging a bit. This concerns the sandbox
in particular, as there are things in there that are
quite stable enough to graduate from there to a place
still to be created. This needs to be discussed, I don't
have a concrete proposal.
In my opinion we should remove the OpenNLP sample annotators,
since we cannot ship OpenNLP with UIMA and the code
is based on the outdated 1.3 version. Beside that will OpenNLP release
a UIMA integration based on 1.4 in the near future.
* If we have the time and the volunteers, we should
take a look at our Eclipse based tooling. Can we add
the CAS Editor to our standard tooling?
I would love to see graduation of the Cas Editor. During the change
to the eclipse plugin I also changed the build system to maven, which
means that it is now build in the same way our other eclipse plugins are
build.
To make the eclipse plugin also a tool which can be used during the
development
of the UIMA applications a user must add the cas editor nature to the
project
and configure all needed dependencies, like type system and styling.
This could be eased through a "Add Cas Editor Nature" action like its
done for PDE.
Can we incorporate
code/ideas from the CAS Viewer as we had planned some
time ago?
Yes that would be cool, but I do not know the CAS Viewer well, so maybe
Tong can point out a few things he wants in the Cas Editor, then I could
work with him on integrating it.
