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.

The plural of corpus is corpora ;-)
I would hesitate to create that much structure when we have 2 annotators
in the sandbox, hopefully one piece of tooling soon and nothing else so
far (not a single corpus in sight, afaik).
We can hold certain pieces of software back from a release if they're
too shaky even with a huge disclaimer (as Adam suggests in another
mail). Let's not make this more complicated than it needs to be.
I'm pointing at Lucene all the time because that's clearly a model that
works. They have all kinds of stuff in their sandbox. Why don't we
start out that way, and if it gets too much, we reorg.
