["Pei Chen (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Pei Chen resolved CTAKES-28.
----------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 3.0-incubating

Fixed in r.1402328  

- UMLS username and password could be passed in as a system property or env variable.
-Added a simple util class called EnvironmentVariable .getEnv(name) will attempt to read the variables
from system properties, environment variable, then context.  
-Renamed variable name to ctakes.umlsuser and ctakes.umlspw to avoid any potential clashes in the future.
-Updated any references that used to use those parameters.
-Added a note to the startup scripts and README for users
Feel free to use this/edit consolidated mechanism so it will be easier for maintenance if we decide to change things.

> To avoid users accidently checking in the UMLS configuration file with pw, it would be good to externalize it so that the pw is stored to an external file.
