Roberto-- It does seem like there should be a close relationship between the two groups.
I don't know much about Lucene--can you educate me? For example, have you given any thought to what to do with UIMA annotations? From what little I've read about Lucene, they seem to have a thing called a document analyzer, but they don't mean the same thing we mean by analysis in the NLP community. They appear to mean something more like "tokenizer". So I haven't yet found a place to put UIMA annotations, say for example, named entities or parts of speech. I'm wondering if Lucene needs a major feature enhancement before its truly useful with UIMA? What are your thoughts on how the integrate the two? What functionality is possible?
