teamcohen / secondstring Goto Github PK

Would be nice to have some sort of quickstart section on the README page to figure out how to get going from scratch.

Also a link to the Javadoc would be good.

And maybe a reference to this paper

And maybe the original SourceForge page?

I used this program in 2007 so now giving back with contributions.

Hello

I am currently packaging secondstring for the Debian project because it is one of the dependencies of the OpenRefine tool.

The files
src/com/wcohen/ss/TagLink.java
src/com/wcohen/ss/tokens/TagLinkToken.java

mention Horacio Camacho as the author but he does not seem to be a member of the original "TeamCohen". Could you clarify if Horacio Camacho also licensed his work under the University-of-Illinois-NCSA-Open-Source-License ? Thanks in advance
