Hi,

I've been asking before about the plans for the next opennlp release. 
The answer I got was that it's not planned yet, when (and whether) to 
release 1.5.3 (maybe, there will be a 1.6. as the next release).


My situation now is the following: I need a release by the end of next 
month (since we are using opennlp in a commercial product where we are 
having a deadline). I cannot use 1.5.2 (because of the EOS symbol 
problems that are fixed in the trunk).

So, I am planning to build a transitional release in our 
company-internal repository. I am just wondering what would be the best 
time to do so....  I see that currently, there are still issues on the 
POS Tagger factory. About other problems I am currently not aware...

Any hints about when to build such a transitional release which I could 
consider "kind-of" stable?

Thanks,
Katrin

P.S.: let me know if there are currently any issues I could be working on...
