Review UIMA Proposal 

A charter has been submitted to form an OASIS Committee to advance the
Unstructured Information Management Architecture (UIMA). The proposed scope of
work is to produce a platform-independent specification in support of the
interoperability, discovery, and composition of analytics across modalities,
domain models, frameworks, and platforms. All OASIS members are welcome to post
comments on this charter; comments posted by 24 September will be addressed by
the Committee proposers. Archives of the comment list are publicly accessible.
