Hi folks, I have posted a 1st release candidate (rc1) for the Apache OpenNLP 2.5.5 release and it is ready for testing.
In total, this release tackles 27 issues and brings several dependency updates, bug fixes (e.g. OPENNLP-1545), and several additions. Accessing (computed) probabilities is now possible in thread-safe probabilistic ME classes via the probs() method (OPENNLP-1757) Loading of pre-trained OpenNLP (UD) models from the classpath was made (even) easier (see: OPENNLP-1729). The 2.5.5 release relies on version 1.3 of the opennlp-models, providing access to pre-trained models for a total of 36 languages. For further details, check the release notes via the project's issue tracker (link below).
