Thanks for the response. However the way I see it is more along the lines 

Apache Stanbol:

Provides A set of engines/enhancers that can be assembled into a text analytics 
pipelines to
- Detect Content types and Language Types
- Extract named Entities
- Categorise using a Ontology 
- Determine basic sentiment of Tokens
Apply NLP, Rules and reasoners as part of the pipeline
Persists semantic attributes associated with Text/content documents
Update Solr/Lucene indexes to allow semantic search

UMIA

Provides a Framework (reduced coding) for assembling text analytics pipelines
Provides a limited set of Engines/annatators that can be used in the pipeline
Provides tools for applying rules for semantically marking up of text
Used to persist semantic attributes with Text/Content documents to a Third 
Party Application or Store, which could be Apache Stanbol
Update Search/Retrieval mechanisms such as Solr/Lucene

Is this accurate?

Subject: Re: Apache Stanbol vs Apache UIMA?

hi basically UIMA is a general framework for different machine-learning task 
(more similar to Weka than Stanbol), since Stanbol is mostly oriented on Named 
Entity recognition, specifically.
Since Stanbol is based on Solr, which can be connected to UIMA, you can 
additionally think about using together Stanbol and UIMA in some way (i didn't 
try this, but i think it's possible)
