Thanks Alex,

I checked the documentation but it seems there is only a webservice 
(OpenCalais) available to extract dates and places.

http://uima.apache.org/sandbox.html

Do you know is there is a Solr Compatible UIMA add-on which detects dates and 
places (cities) without a webservice? If not, how do you write one?

Regards, Bart
