Description
Branding guidelines say the "first use" of a name in websites / documentation of various kinds should use Apache XXX. Page http://www.apache.org/foundation/marks/pmcs.html#naming says 'The first and most prominent reference to a project or product on each page must use the "Apache Foo" form of its name. Other references may use either "Apache Foo" or "Foo" as appropriate for the subject matter.'
It is probably a grey area of whether or not the <name> element constitutes a "first and most prominent reference". However, the <name> element by default is picked up in the NOTICE file and used to create the appropriate Notice, so this weighs in favor of having this be the Apache UIMA form.
Therefore, in all projects defining their own <name> element starting with just UIMA, change this to Apache UIMA.
