Classification: UK OFFICIAL Afternoon everyone,
In response to Petr's comments, we have added some additional information to the Wiki section of the Baleen GitHub repo. We haven't added any new information (yet), but we have collated information that is already available into one place to make it more accessible. If there are any specific areas that people feel could do with more attention, please let us know and we'll see what we can do. https://github.com/dstl/baleen/wiki Thanks, James -----Original Message----- From: Petr Baudis [mailto:pa...@ucw.cz] Sent: 28 September 2015 21:23 To: Baker James D Cc: user@uima.apache.org Subject: Re: [UK OFFICIAL] Baleen - UIMA Based Text Analytics Framework Hi!

However, I haven't found any clear summary of what is the framework capable of right now - I think you might want to expand the generic description a bit with some examples and use-cases. I have been looking around a bit and seems like e.g. https://github.com/dstl/baleen/blob/master/baleen/baleen-annotators/src/main/java/uk/gov/dstl/baleen/annotators/cleaners/MergeAdjacentQuantities.java is something that could be pretty useful, but you might want to make it easier to discover the capabilities to get more users / contributors.
