Batteries Not Included: You should be aware that the source code distribution alone is not sufficient to set up and run a complete CAB analysis pipeline on your local site. In order to do that, you will also need various assorted language models and additional resources which are not themselves part of CAB (which aspires to be language-agnostic), and therefore not included in the source code distribution. See Jurish (2012) and the source code documentation for more details.
