With what should we replace C:/Program Files/IBM/uima?
Example descriptors have paths including C:/Program Files/IBM/uima
(which are then replaced by $UIMA_HOME if you run the
adjustExamplePaths scripts).
We should obviously remove IBM from this. But what do you think we should use?
C:/Program Files/uima
C:/Program Files/apache/uima
C:/Program Files/apache-uima
C:/uima
C:/apache/uima
C:/apache-uima
Other?

I also generally prefer lower case, but make an exception for
brand-things where it might
make a difference.
In this case, I don't feel very strongly about captialization....

Well, I already went ahead and changed them to C:/Program
Files/apache/uima earlier today. But that does seem like a reasonable
argument for apache-uima instead. It's an easy global replace so I
can change them again if there is consensus.
I prefer keeping things lowercase. Usually that's just because
they're easier to type in UNIX, which doesn't really apply here since
this is just a placeholder directory name and would be replaced by
wherever the user actually installs UIMA. But still I prefer
lowercase on general principles.

I like the 3rd one. It indicates there's no coordination among Apache
projects
(which is true), which the 2nd one might imply. I guess I would
capitalize the first "A" in Apache though.
I would not capitalize uima....
