 2. Major Changes in this Release
-This section describes what has changed between version 2.0 and version 2.1 of 
-UIMA. A migration utility is provided which will make the required updates to 
-your Java code and descriptors. See Section 3, "Migrating from IBM UIMA to 
-Apache UIMA" for instructions on how to run the migration utility.
-
-2.1. Java Package Name Changes
-
-All of the UIMA Java package names have changed in Apache UIMA. They now start 
-with org.apache rather than com.ibm. There have been other changes as well. The 
-package name segment reference_impl has been shortened to impl, and some 
-segments have been reordered. For example 
-com.ibm.uima.reference_impl.analysis_engine has become 
-org.apache.uima.analysis_engine.impl. Tools are now consolidated under 
-org.apache.uima.tools and service adapters under org.apache.uima.adapter.
-
-The migration utility will replace all occurrences of IBM UIMA package names 
-with their Apache UIMA equivalents. It will not replace prefixes of package 
-names, so if your code uses a package called com.ibm.uima.myproject (although 
-that is not recommended), it will not be replaced.
-
-2.2. XML Descriptor Changes
-
-The XML namespace in UIMA component descriptors has changed from 
-http://uima.watson.ibm.com/resourceSpecifier to 
-http://uima.apache.org/resourceSpecifier. The value of the 
-<frameworkImplementation> must now be org.apache.uima.java or 
-org.apache.uima.cpp. The migration script will apply these replacements.
-
-2.3. TCAS replaced by CAS
-
-In Apache UIMA the TCAS interface has been removed. All uses of it must now be 
-replaced by the CAS interface. (All methods that used to be defined on TCAS 
-were moved to CAS in v2.0.) The method CAS.getTCAS() is replaced with 
-CAS.getCurrentView() and CAS.getTCAS(String) is replaced with 
-CAS.getView(String) . The following have also been removed and replaced with 
-the equivalent "CAS" variants: TCASException, TCASRuntimeException, TCasPool, 
-and CasCreationUtils.createTCas(...).
-
-The migration script will apply the necessary replacements.
-
-2.4. JCas Is Now an Interface
-
-In previous versions, user code accessed the JCas class directly. In Apache 
-UIMA there is now an interface, org.apache.uima.jcas.JCas, which all JCas-based 
-user code must now use. Static methods that were previously on the JCas class 
-(and called from JCas cover classes generated by JCasGen) have been moved to 
-the new org.apache.uima.jcas.JCasRegistry class. The migration script will 
-apply the necessary replacements to your code, including any JCas cover classes 
-that are part of your codebase.
-
-2.5. JAR File names Have Changed
-
-The UIMA JAR file names have changed slightly. Underscores have been replaced 
-with hyphens to be consistent with Apache naming conventions. For example 
-uima_core.jar is now uima-core.jar. Also uima_jcas_builtin_types.jar has been 
-renamed to uima-document-annotation.jar. Finally, the jVinci.jar file is now in
-the lib directory rather than the lib/vinci directory as was previously the 
-case. The migration script will apply the necessary replacements, for example to
-script files or Eclipse launch configurations. 
-
-2.6. Semantic Search Engine Repackaged
-
-The versions of the UIMA SDK prior to the move into Apache came with a semantic 
-search engine. The Apache version does not include this search engine. The 
-search engine has been repackaged and is separately available from 
-http://www.alphaworks.ibm.com/tech/uima. The intent is to hook up (over time) 
-with other open source search engines, such as the Lucene search engine project 
-in Apache.
+
+This section describes what has changed between version 2.1 and version 2.2 of 
+Apache UIMA.
+
+2.1 Pear Runtime
+
+It is now possible to run installed Pear files directly, without any manual setup.
+When you package a Pear file with Apache UIMA 2.2, a descriptor will be created
+from which you can create an analysis engine.  You no longer need to worry about
+classpath setup for the Pear, this is now handled by the framework.  You can also
+refer to several Pears from an aggregate analysis engine descriptor, without
+additional setup.
+
+2.2 Class Loading Improvements for JCas Cover Classes
+
+The JCas cover classes are now loaded with the analysis engine's class loader (used
+to be loaded by the framework class loader).  So if you package your analysis in a
+Pear, you can now be sure that the correct version of the JCas cover classes will
+be used in your annotator.  This fixes a long-standing issue where different,
+incompatible versions of JCas cover classes would be present on the classpath.  In
+particular, you can now add new features to the document annotation and use the JCas
+to access them.
 
 
 3. Migrating from IBM UIMA to Apache UIMA
 
+This section describes how to move from pre-Apache versions of UIMA to the
+Apache version (starting with Apache UIMA 2.1).
+
 Note: Before running the migration utility, be sure to back up your files, just 
 in case you encounter any problems, because the migration tool updates the 
 files in place in the directories where it finds them.
