please reply with status items for Board report
Hi,
Believe it or not, 3 months have flown by and it's time for another Board report.
Please reply to this note with any input for that, by this coming Thursday, 9 June.
Thanks. -Marshall

Thanks to everyone for their input. I've shortened the changes somewhat
(remember the board has lots of stuff to read). Here's the new version; we can
still "improve" it if needed....
Board report for Apache UIMA, for June 2011.
Apache UIMA's mission: the creation and maintenance of open-source
software related to the analysis of unstructured data, guided by the
UIMA Oasis Standard.
Releases:
Since last report, UIMA-AS Released
(http://uima.apache.org/news.html#22 March 2011).
Development:
UIMA CAS Editor is being improved and extended with inputs from several
active users. A new Eclipse plugin was done that supports easy launching
of UIMA Analysis Engines from within Eclipse.
The set of add-ons is being released soon (on 2nd release candidate as of now).
A user has set up a French language portal to all things UIMA, and
contributed a French language models for the Hidden Markov Model (HMM)
Tagger annotator, and generally improved that annotator.
Another user contributed fixes to URL usage.
Community:
Two users have been busy submitting patches, some of which haven't been
acted upon yet (we have a backlog). One new user who has expressed an
interest in helping out, has also started contributing patches.
Issues: No Board level issues at this time
Trademarks/Branding: all of our web pages have the right footers.
We changed the first occurrence of the use of trademark at the
beginning to be a modifier of a generic class noun, per recent guidance.

Or, even better, it might be worth adding these to the External Resources page
:-).
The board doesn't particularly want to see all details like this (I think), but
thanks for the reminder to add these.

I'm not on the board, but I would like to mention a few things that could go into the report.
- I guess you should mention Nicolas contribution of the French models as well.
- There are also patches contributed by Nicolas to the HMM Tagger
-- UIMA-2146: Donation of French data models for the Apache UIMA Sandbox HMM Tagger
-- UIMA-2106: Handling tokens not present in the language model (and also with no suffix present in the model) causes a null pointer exception in the tagger process
-- UIMA-2110: Turn the HMMTagger class into a more generic class for tagging tasks
- As a matter of fact, I have also submitted a patch and have interest in contributing, but didn't make it as explicit on the list
-- UIMA-1080: [Patch] Wrong usage of URL in XmiWriterCasConsumer
-- UIMA-2102: Make ResourceManager_impl.ResourceRegistration protected (there is no patch attached here because the change is so trivial "private" -> "protected" and done.)
- Nicolas and I have both expressed interest that our community projects (uima-fr.org and http://www.ukp.tu-darmstadt.de/software/dkpro/) could be added to the Apache UIMA External Resources page. That might also be worth a mention.

This was reported in last quarters report where we said:
Development:
Got Continuous Integration going for UIMAJ and UIMA-AS using Hudson.
Got Sonar reporting going for UIMAJ.
I could add that the add-ons was added to CI.

Another thing that might be worth mentioning is that UIMA is now using the Apache CI facilities.
