Scripting annotator
Hi
We (at Temis) have been invited by Marshall to contribute more actively to UIMA.
As a first contribution I would like to share with the community a little component that we have developped and found very useful: a scripting annotator based on Apache Bean Scripting Framework (BSF).
We use it very frequently to do quick modifications in CASes within an annotation chain (preprocessing, typesystem adaptation, etc...).
Currently the BSF Annotator has been tested with Beanshell and JRuby as scripting languages but should be extended to most of BSF-enabled languages including Javascript, Jython etc...
Prior to conbtributing the source as a patch in Jira I would like to have your opinion on the usefulness of such components

Before you start contributing, you should file an ICLA (individual
contributor's license agreement) with the ASF. See
http://www.apache.org/licenses/#clas.
If the annotator is a substantial piece of work, and you haven't
written it all yourself, we'll need a code grant from Temis for
it. See http://www.apache.org/licenses/#grants. If it's just
a small handful of files, this won't be necessary.

+1 absolutely. The Perl, Python and Tcl interfaces use the C++ layer,
so hopefully this path would be smoother!

This sounds like a great addition to the framework - the ability to have
annotators that are based on the Bean Scripting Framework, especially
for quick tasks. We have some capability for this in the framework
already for Perl and Python, but this sounds like it could be a smoother
integration.
+1 from me - what do others think?

P.S. - sorry for the slow response, have been inundated....
