Having finally read all the emails related to this proposal, I'm very much for this "puppy" entering ASF and eventually getting it going with Lucene and friends.
A few questions. 1. What you are proposing for ASF is the UIMA 2.0 code that currently lives on SF, correct? 2. What about the SDK, and could you tell me/us what's in the SDK that is not in the SF code? (I'm confused, because your proposal includes references to tools for development and design of UIMA components, but doesn't that typically live in an SDK?) 3. I'm a bit puzzled why something that sounds like a framework/pipeline for hooking up components with pre-defined input/output adapters ends up with with a 400 page user guide/book. Perhaps I should present this as a question. How come? Or is that user guide for the SDK only?

Please consider this proposal (on the incubator wiki because it is quite long: http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/UimaProposal ), and help us move it along toward getting it voted on by the Incubator PMC. Two important clarifying emails (as well as the whole previous thread) can be found here: http://www.nabble.com/Re%3A-Proposal-for-a-new-incubation-project%3A-Unstructured-Information-Management-Architecture---UIMA-p5987788.html and http://www.nabble.com/Re%3A-Proposal-for-a-new-incubation-project%3A-Unstructured-Information-Management-Architecture---UIMA-p5986403.html (These are also hyperlinks in the wiki to these at the end of the first small section.) -Marshall Leo Simons wrote: > On Fri, Aug 25, 2006 at 06:04:04PM +0200, Thilo Goetz wrote: > <snip/> > >> I hope this gives you a better idea what UIMA is about >> > > Yep, this and other explanations made it a lot clearer, thanks! > > UIMA sounds ambituous and interesting. > > cheers, > > Leo Niclas Hedhman wrote: > On Thursday 24 August 2006 03:21, Marshall Schor wrote: > > >> Proposal for Incubation Project: Unstructured Information Management >> Architecture - UIMA >> > > From going from "WTF is this" to "Hmmm... interesting" after Leo's > brilliant "please clarify" (resusable as well) mail. > > I think this is an area that has plenty of potential, possibly with a lot of > interested parties in academia at large, I think ASF could be a good > community breeding ground. > > I'm in favour of this, but not capable of contributing in any form. > > > Cheers > Niclas > Yonik Seeley wrote: > On 8/26/06, Thilo Goetz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> From an application perspective, we have great hopes for a cooperation >> with the Lucene project. > > Great, I think this is something I'd like to get involved in! > I've been thinking about how Solr integration could work. > >> You then also need a search engine that >> can index that extra information and make it available for search. > > Without getting into too much detail here, some info could be > immediately usable by Lucene based apps (like entity extraction, where > you can add info via a new field in the document).
