I looked took a look at the POM. It was what I expected. I have to manually run 
maven to generate the release notes and then commit them before doing mvn 
release:prepare.  I very much dislike that. Unfortunately, I don't really have 
a choice.  Currently, the build will run the changes plugin during 
release:prepare and include it in the binary distribution automatically, but 
not the source distribution.
