Hi Roberto, our group at Technische Universität Darmstadt has indeed developed a consumer that outputs Lucene indexes. It is described in our paper for the LREC workshop "UIMA for NLP" which can be found here: http://www.ukp.tu-darmstadt.de/fileadmin/user_upload/Group_UKP/publikationen/2008/paper.pdf We are very willing to share this and other UIMA components with the community. Unfortunately we haven't been able to release the components yet, due to a lack of time. If you contact me directly I can send you the code of an example Lucene CAS consumer which we use in some student projects. This could be a good starting point for building your own consumer.
