Use the links below to download Apache cTAKES (incubating) from one of our mirrors. It is good practice to verify the integrity of the distribution files, using the signatures and checksums listed in the signatures column as asc, md5, or sha1.
Only the current recommended releases are available on the main distribution site and its mirrors. Older releases are available from the archive download site.
cTAKES is distributed as both source and binary (ready-to-use) packages. These are available in zip and tar.gz formats.
