Lots of activity! great!

I see the source there, but I'm curious as to what that does and how?
I had a brief look at 1.0, but didn't notice something in the poms
that would generate code like that. I'll have a look at 2.0 on bitbucket.
I've used GitHub and like it.

In the short term, I want to experiment with dependency parses and event detection.
In the longer term, I'm interested in maintaining such a project, and I'm encouraged
by the activity. Also, I'd like to learn more about the ontologies used and how
they relate to  the Open Annotation work.

Will do. I applied for a wiki user.
