It looks like the general consensus is for # 2)  Leave them in the ASF repo, 
but as separate modules/project(s).
Which means we (the community) will take on the risk (security, ip, license, 
etc.) and responsibility for the models that we commit.
I'll take a stab at this today...  
Does anyone think it's worthwhile to (a) lump them all together and call it a 
ctakes-resources project/model for pragmatic reasons?  Otherwise (b), we'll 
have a resource module for each such as ctakes-core-res, ctakes-pos-tagger-res, 
etc.?
