All, I propose changing the release preparation documents. Currently is says:
Maven 2 builds should temporarily add a site location to the <distributionManagement>: <distributionManagement> <id>stagingSite</id> <url>scp://people.apache.org/home/<apacheuser>/public_html/foo-1.2rc1/site</url> </distributionManagement> Rather than temporarily changing a pom (it just seemed "hacky" to me), why not suggest this: Maven 2 builds should perform a stage-deploy by supplying an alternate staging site url: mvn site:stage-deploy -DstagingSiteURL=scp://people.apache.org/home/<apacheuser>/public_html/foo-1.2rc1/site Does that sound reasonable? That's what I did for proxy and I didn't have to change any files in my rc1 tag. I deployed as-is.
