Significant changes were made to the type sysem for cTAKES (now Apache cTAKES 
[incubating]) to generalize it and align it with standards where possible. It 
includes semantic and syntactic types.
http://incubator.apache.org/ctakes/

I suggest you look at ctakes-constituency-parser for an example of handling a 
syntax tree.

The type system for the current release candidate is:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/ctakes/branches/ctakes-3.0.0-incubating/ctakes-type-system/src/main/resources/org/apache/ctakes/typesystem/types/TypeSystem.xml

And the latest release under development is:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/ctakes/trunk/ctakes-type-system/src/main/resources/org/apache/ctakes/typesystem/types/TypeSystem.xml
