Hi all, back from 2nd IKS [1] Workshop last friday in Rome where I had a speech/demo about UIMA and Semantic Search. It's been a nice experience and I would like to share with you some good news. Firstly I had some good feedback about UIMA in general from the people at the workshop. Bertrand Delacretaz, who is part of IKS as Day employee and also member of ASF, had a good feeling about UIMA for semantic search to include inside IKS stack [2]. The Nuxeo open source ECM [3] is developing its semantic search module on the top of UIMA. You can see some photos here [4]. My introduction slides are available at [5]. My demos were about a real estate market analysis tool which uses UIMA for metadata extraction and an integration between UIMA and AlchemyAPI, I hope to be able to provide the screecasts soon. Let me know if you have any questions. Cheers, Tommaso
