&lt;br /&gt;
In case someone is reading this, I am wondering whether or not SharpNLP is still being actively developed. I posted a question to the forum on 20th of March, to which I haven't received an answer, yet. Also, the last release seems to be from 2006 ?!&lt;br /&gt;
So, if SharpNLP is not being developed anymore, are there any good C# alternatives out there? (I am aware of GATE and OpenNLP)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers, &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I just got started digging into SharpNLP and I am very excited about the possibilities it provides. To get started, I was trying to use the sentence detector and it worked fine on an English text. Is there also a maxent model available for German? Actually, is there a complete list of supported languages somewhere?&lt;br /&gt;
I was also wondering how one could provide your own list of abbreviations of the sentence detector to use. Is this possible? &lt;br /&gt;

Not really got as much time as i'd like for NLP at the moment, but will give it a try when i can.&lt;br /&gt;

Here is an example :&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;        try
        {
            fileInputStream = new FileInputStream(string.Concat(ModelPath, &amp;quot;en-parser-chunking.bin&amp;quot;));

            try
            {
                ParserModel model = new ParserModel(fileInputStream);
                this.FParser = ParserFactory.create(model);
            }
   var strBldr = new java.lang.StringBuffer();


        string directoryName = Path.GetDirectoryName(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().CodeBase);
        var ModelPath = string.Concat((new Uri(directoryName)).LocalPath, &amp;quot;\\Models\\&amp;quot;);

        topParses = ParserTool.parseLine(InputText, FParser, 1);
        foreach (var topParse in topParses)
        {
            topParse.show(strBldr);
        }

        }
&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;

It works perfectly fine. Loading model takes about 3-4 seconds however - it looks longer than in native java solution. But parsing time seems fine. No performace testing have been performed so far.&lt;br /&gt;
