Maybe some of these project get also integrated to the core framework. But I'm not sure if, e.g. annotator components will be added to the core. I think such analysis components will ever stay in the sandbox and can be downloaded there. Other opinions?

I prefer creating "subprojects" of Apache UIMA to hold these, for reasons stated in previous notes. For instance, how about a subproject called "Apache UIMA Components", holding annotators? (Another subproject might be "corpii" - common test data, etc.) We could do distributions/releases of these.
So you mean, when a sandbox analysis component is ready to use instead of adding it to the core framework we will add it to the "Apache UIMA components" project. That's also fine with me. Though the sandbox in this case is only a temporary space and nothing that ever create any binary distributed component, right? In that case we also do not need to add the sandbox to any release since if a sandbox component "is ready" we vote and add it to the core framework of to the components subproject. That is a kind of redefinition
of the current sandbox.
