[Corpora-List] CRF for POS tagging

Mallet [1] has a pretty extensive CRF implementation, although I've
usually used it as a library rather than a stand alone application.
There is a command line front-end that takes input one-line per token
with features seperated by spaces.  I believe output is similarly
formatted.

Training a CRF for many tags is a little tricky though, even with just
45 tags, it helps to limit the number of tag-tag-word features.
