Hi Marshall When I donated the BSFAnnotator about two years ago I was not very familiar with the maven-based Apache UIMA build process... And I'm afraid I'm still not be.

No: just the README sorry I guess that a real revamping should use the JSR-223 (javax.script) which is included in Java 1.6 and add support to new popular scripting languages like groovy, beanshell 2.0 etc... > > -Marshall
