Hi all,
I have posted a first release candidate for the Apache OpenNLP 2.5.8 release
and it is ready for testing.
Maintenance Infos:
• Bug Fixes:
• The SentenceDetector got three fixes in handling edge cases with
abbreviation dictionaries (OPENNLP-1809, OPENNLP-1810, OPENNLP-1811)
• Improvements:
• The OpenNLP developer manual (HTML + PDF) got an uplift for the UIMA
documentation part, being largely extended (OPENNLP-49)
• Some updates of dependencies
Thank you to everyone who contributed to this release, including all of our
users and the people who submitted bug reports, contributed code or
documentation enhancements.
