Hmm - I'm wondering whether why the people over on open relevance shouldn't be
open to supporting your kinds of annotations? Or are they technically so
different from those in the mentioned use cases (IR, Machine Learning and NLP)
that it would just make not sense to explore areas for working together?

I only meant that the immediate focus of the OpenRelevance
project seems to be search relevance judgments, which
is a very different problem from, say, sentence segmentation,
entity extraction or parsing. Of course we should work
together, and I have no doubts that the OpenRelevance
guys would accommodate our needs.
I've been wondering if there is something we could do
to enhance collaboration between all the text related
projects at Apache. For example, I used to be subscribed
to both the Solr and the Mahout lists. Eventually though,
I just couldn't cope with the traffic. Maybe some sort
of [email protected] mailing list? At some point I thought
the Lucene umbrella could be such a focal point, but the
ASF is moving away from umbrellas like that. A low
overhead mailing list could be the ticket, it's not a
lot of effort, and if it doesn't take off, we just shelve
it. WDYT?
