["Chris Fournier (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENNLP-544?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13881430#comment-13881430 ] 

Chris Fournier commented on OPENNLP-544:
----------------------------------------

It's a backwards incompatible refactoring, so it probably needs to be in a major release, e.g. 1.6.0/1.7.0, etc., depending upon your version number semantics.  

Maybe close this and create a new issue for a larger refactoring of a variety of type hierarchies later for a specific version?

> Added an interface, opennlp.tools.util.Spannable, to allow for the creation of objects that can span text and fulfill the same functionality as Span without necessarily needing to extend it (currently implemented only by opennlp.tools.util.Span).
