title: How can I get the stanford NLTK python module?
body: <p>I have the <code>python</code> (2.7.5) and <code>python-nltk</code> packages installed in Ubuntu 13.10. Running <code>apt-cache policy python-nltk</code> returns: </p>
  
  <pre><code>python-nltk:
    Installed: 2.0~b9-0ubuntu4
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And according to the <a href="http://nlp.stanford.edu/software/CRF-NER.shtml" rel="nofollow">Stanford site</a>, 2.0+ should have the <code>stanford</code> module. Yet when I try to import it, I get an error: </p>
  
  <pre><code>&gt;&gt;&gt; import nltk.tag.stanford
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "&lt;stdin&gt;", line 1, in &lt;module&gt;
  ImportError: No module named stanford
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How can I get the stanford module? (Preferably through the usual repositories, since I don't like to install software outside the Ubuntu package manager.) </p>
