Yep. Only uima-uimafit is writable and syncs to gitbox.a.o.

The other uima projects are mirrored read-only at GitHub. Although people
could still fork them from there and create pull requests. But the pull
requests could not be merged via GitHub. They would have to be exported
as patches, attached to a Jira, and then be merged manually by a UIMA
committer.

In the uimaFIT project, I can automatically build PRs from contributors via
Apache Jenkins and I can conveniently review and merge them through the GitHub 
website
without having to go through the traditional routine of checking the
source out locally, patching it with the contribution, building locally, etc.
Although I mostly do this for myself at the moment since there are not (m)any
contributions at this time.
