This paper presents the integration of RelaxCor into FreeLing. RelaxCor is a coreference resolution system based on constraint satisfaction that ranked second in CoNLL-2011 shared task. FreeLing is an open-source library for NLP with more than fifteen years of existence and a widespread user community. We present the difficulties found in porting RelaxCor from a shared task scenario to a production enviroment, as well as the solutions devised. We present two strategies for this integration and a rough evaluation of the obtained results.
