> A recent Jira UIMA-5120 was logging CASs to file system directories, and including a type system.  
> It would be good to have a conventional,supported way to do this common kind of operation, added to CasIOUtils.
> Additionally, it would be good to support as an alternative the standard XML serialization format for type systems.
> Some possible conventions:  
> * multiple cas files, in 1 directory, with one additional file with the name "typesystem.xml".
> * the above style, in one zip file (for example, to be able to read it, one cas at a time, via some iterator).
> * finding a type system via the class path following uimaFIT conventions
> One factor that probably is important is to store the type system for this kind of thing "close to" the serialized forms it applies to.
> It would be possible of course to support multiple conventions.  However, the more conventions, the less benefit from "standardization", so this ought to be a balance.
