Some of my undergrade students had to write an extension for the CEV
plugin that protocols the insertions and deletions of the opened xmiCAS
file and changes the annotations when saving. If there is interest in
this, then I could provide that functionality for the CEV plugin
sometime after improving the code. The goal of the extension is mainly
to to support the maintenance of already annotated documents, e.g., for
further anonymization.
Furthermore, a plugin in the TextMarker build provides a popup that
converts text or word processing documents to xmiCAS (one click), but it
is not yet documented.
