I think that trunk has enough new stuff to warrant a major release. I am sure that I am missing quite a few things, but some clumps of new goodies include:
New Modules (and components): ctakes-fhir ctakes-rest ctakes-dockhand New (reader, writer, AE) Components: Case-Sensitive Dictionary Lookup optional faster Cleartk-Assertion engines document attribute adjusters new JDBC writer api - various sundry New Facilities, Utilities: Builders for Annotations, CAS Accessors for Annotations, CAS Time normalization - and more New Abstractions, "Paradigms" Semantic Group, Type focus Patient (grouped document) focus Simple extendable File Readers, Writers Stores for cross-document efforts Other features: JCas Views usable via piper files New examples (code, pipers, documents) ... and undoubtedly many updates to models and code that I am forgetting or don't even know about. I don't know about major incompatibilities. A few classes have been moved, data has changed, maybe a default or two. Anybody using ctakes 4.0.0 as a dependency may have to modify their code on a switch to trunk - as you noticed with the relocation of DotLogger. Another change for a major release could be removing ytex from the main package and making it a separate build (and deprecated). Anything that people love in ytex can be moved elsewhere in ctakes. There is a lot to discuss here and I might be one of only a few that feel a weaker coupling is useful, but that would be a big change.

Are there major structural or compatibility issues between 4.0 and trunk? - it doesn’t strike me that there are How about 4.0.0 going to 4.0.1 and trunk becoming 4.1.0-SNAPSHOT? I.e. a new feature release... when it comes.
