The Apache UIMA team is pleased to announce the release of the Apache
UIMA Ruta (Rule-based Text Annotation), version 2.2.0.

Apache UIMA Ruta is a rule-based script language supported by
Eclipse-based tooling. The language is designed to enable rapid
development of text processing applications within UIMA. A special focus
lies on the intuitive and flexible domain specific language for defining
patterns of annotations. The Eclipse-based tooling,
called the Apache UIMA Ruta Workbench, was created to support the
user and to facilitate every step when writing rules. Both
the rule language and the workbench integrate
smoothly with Apache UIMA.

Major Changes in this Release

UIMA Ruta Language and Analysis Engine:
- - Major performance improvements (3-17 times faster in test use cases)
- - Improved import type functionality and handling of ambiguous short names
- - Support of block extensions for rule inference adaptions
- - Options to determine where the next match should start
- - Requires at least Java 6
- - Many bug fixes

UIMA Ruta Workbench:
- - Smaller improvements in many views
- - Support of mixin Java/Ruta projects
- - Many bug fixes
