Hi Roberto and Ekaterina,

Have you taken a look at IBM LanguageWare on Alphaworks
(http://www.alphaworks.ibm.com/tech/lrw)?.
We've just released a new version 7.1.1.3 so its a good time to check it
out.
It is a very powerful UIMA based platform for creating Information
Extraction applications. I'd love to hear your opinion.

You can check more info in links in my footer. Or contact us through the
Alphaworks forum or the email address in the FAQ.

Regards,
-DJ

We developed a bridge to use JAPE inside a UIMA pipeline.
It works, but I'm not very happy with it:
- low performance: mapping from uima to jape and then back to uima
genersates a lot of objects and a lot of GC cycles: if you are going to
analyze a lot of documents you can:
-- buy new HW
-- study the voodo to optimize  the JVM performance :)
- difficult to map a rich UIMA type sytem  to jape annotaions

If you want a can share my very-ugly code :)

The GATE team wrote a bridge but as far as I know it support the old
ibm-uima.
Text marker seems very interesting to me, I will take a deep look to it on
August .
cheers,
R.
