"UIMA AS Asynchronous Scaleout" not in Release 2.4.0

[Jawad Husain <jb...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I was wondering why "UIMA AS Asynchronous Scaleout" is not part of the Latest 
Official Release 2.4.0 as I'm considering to use it. 

Looks like to be able to use it, I have to switch back to the previous version 
2.3.1 of Apache UIMA.

However here is the quote from UIMA documentation about AS:

"UIMA Asynchronous Scaleout (AS) is a second generation design, replacing the 
CPM and Vinci Services. The CPM and Vinci are still available and are not 
being deprecated, but new designs are encouraged to use AS for scalability, 
and current designs reaching limitations may want to move to AS."

Please advise.

Thanks,
Jawad

It wasn't quite ready for release...  It's much closer now, and being worked on.
