There is a lot of valuable software available on https://github.com/cltl/ . I think we should collaborate to include useful NLP software in LaMachine, provided it meets some basic quality/sustainability criteria (see https://github.com/proycon/LaMachine/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md).

Participation in LaMachine means you only need to take care of a basic level of packaging, and further distribution/containerisation/virtualisation is handled by LaMachine. This would fit in the scope of the CLARIAH and the WP3 VRE project.

I wanted to start by integrating some of your Python software, on first glance only the KafNafParserPy seems to fit the necessary requirements (i.e. has a standard setup.py and published to the Python Package Index), so I'll start with that.

The eScience Center could potentially help with this, as part of both the EviDENce and the inside-the-filter-bubble projects.

Note that I can't decide this, I'm just saying that this sounds like it makes sense.
