["Marshall Schor (JIRA)" <de...@uima.apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-2811?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13630167#comment-13630167 ] 

Marshall Schor commented on UIMA-2811:
--------------------------------------

At a high level, this project is about convenient ways to construct text (only?) annotators from "rules".  So, in some ways, it's like "drools" but specific to UIMA (and maybe to text). It's like a rule language augmentation or add-on to UIMA, with workbench support.

Some kinds of names use generic strings of words.  Some possibilities: UIMA Rules Language, UIMA Rules Language and Workbench.

Other names might be derived from this: UIMA RulesLanguage  UIMA RulesLW.

If this is only for text, we could work that word in:
Text Rules Language, Rules Text Language and Workbenc, TextRulesLanguage , TRLW, RTLW, RulesTLW, etc.

Another Apache tradition is to pick a name with no relation.  e.g.,  these already taken names: "Anakia", "Roller" "Shindig".  Here, a generator based on random picking against a large corpus of (somewhat common) proper nouns could give some candidates we could then pick from :-)
