We are pleased to announce the release of INCEpTION 0.15.2
INCEpTION is an extensible web-based collaborative environment
for text annotation. It integrates machine-learning-based annotation
support, knowledge base management and corpus building into
a single comprehensive platform.
This is a bugfix release.
Notable changes since INCEpTION 0.15.0
- Upgraded to Servlet version 4.0.1 to be compatible with Tomcat 9.0
- Fixed bug where documents with meta data annotations with required features could not be marked as finished.
- Fixed bug where non-default port and protocol information for external document repositories through were ignored.
- Fixed missing checkboxes in Import dialogue.
- Fixed bug where import options were visible to non-authorized users.
- Skip disabled link features during rendering.
- Allow annotation ui to be entered also via a (file)name parameter
- When creating a new feature, the input focus will now move directly to the name field for the new feature.
If you discover problems with this release, please report them to us via our issue tracker [2].
