The CFP itself must still be rewritten to be less UIMA-centric, other
than that this is starting to look quite good.

GATE developer Mark A. Greenwood did the rewrite and sent me a pull
request on Github.

For example, the topic "experience reports combining UIMA-based
components from different sources, as well as solutions to
interoperability issues" could be reworded as:

1) experience reports combining language analysis components from
different sources, as well as solutions to interoperability issues

2) experience reports combining different frameworks (e.g.
GATE/UIMA/WebLicht/etc.), as well as solutions to interoperability issues

I put both in there as separate points.

I think both aspects would be interesting. I'm a little afraid that 1)
might end up iterating the existing of frameworks like UIMA, while 2)
would end up referring over web-services or semantic web stuff for
interoperability - which may not be very interesting. I'd be more
interested in issues and solutions exist beyond this, e.g. with
regards to the interchangability of components. What problems exist
when e.g. one parser component in a workflow is replaced with a
different one? How can these be solved? (Cf. Noh and Padó, 2013 [1]).

Agree.  Subtle semantic differences between alternative components can
be more challenging than the technical integration.  I'm not sure how to
put that in the CFP without it getting very verbose, though.

I think one more topic could be added:

- "combining annotation type systems in processing frameworks (GATE,
UIMA, etc.) with standardization efforts, such as done in the ISO
TC37/SC4 or TEI contexts."

Done. Thanks for your input.

As always, the current state of the proposal can be seen on Github:
https://github.com/jgrivolla/coling2014-nlp-framework-workshop/blob/master/proposal.md


I think the current version is pretty close to final. If there are any
more suggestions hurry up, the deadline is approaching.
