OK if nobody disagree I will move the current Sandbox documentation
chapters into the sub projects and remove the build that create one big
Sandbox documentation.

I don't like this setup. If I'm only interested in one Sandbox
component I have to build/get the complete Sandbox documentation. If I
want to
package for example an annotator as PEAR and will include the
documentation, I have to package the whole Sandbox documentation
and cannot package just that part that is relevant for the component.
Given that I worked on some modifications for the Sandbox build. My
plan is that each Sandbox component has a folder called "docbook" that
contains the docbook XML file and the images. Also each project has an
own build file that reference a common Sandbox build file
(sandbox_build.xml) to build the documentation for the component.
The SandboxDocs project is still used for all the other files that are
necessary for the Sandbox documentation build. and if necessary to
build a documentation
that contains all the Sandbox components. But I think this is not
really helpful. Also the SandboxDocs project has a common book info
(book_info.xml) file that is used during the component build so that
book information and copyright information just have to be created
once. The new files in the SandboxDocs project are located at
src/docbook/book_info.xml and sandbox_build.xml.
I updated the RegularExpressionAnnotator project to work with this new
setup. It now contains a docbook directory that contains the
documentation and a build_documentation.xml file to build it.
Please take a look and let me know what you think about.
If we go with that setup some of the SandboxDocs projects files can be
deleted.
