v2.6.1

Update some build-related problems, mostly with Maven configuration and requirements.

v2.6.0

A bunch of infrastructure tweaks:

• Multi-lingual support at the query level (add language=EN to the end of your query - ES and DE also supported but not tested well)
• Configuration now in env-vars (the only one is INDEX_PATH and it defaults intelligently so you shouldn't have to make any changes)
• updated NER models to latest

v2.5.0

A number of updates from contributors!

• Update Stanford NER library to v3.9.2
• Relies on Java 11 (required by Stanford)
• Logs to STDOUT
• Fixes various tests to pass

v2.4.2

Change logging to ERROR to reduce giant log files that happen in default installs and fill our hard drives.

v2.4.1

Upgrades underlying libraries and models.

v2.3.0

This release adds a new plugin architecture so you can swap out entity recognizers (thanks to @owaaa). It also upgrades the default Stanford NER to v3.4.1.

v2.1.0

This release completes our integration with CLAVIN 2.0. This causes a performance hit, but brings us in line with their latest code. Otherwise it is identical to CLIFF v1.4.1. Note that you will need to build a new IndexDirectory with CLAVIN 2.0.0 for this to work (and link it to /etc/cliff2/IndexDirectory).

v1.4.1

Adds in better disambiguation logic or choosing between a state and city of the same name. Also changes co-logications to prefer places in the same country AND state.
