The command "mvn -Prc -DcreateChecksum=true install" is taken verbatim from that very "Create the Release Candidate Website" page, and neither it, nor that entire script, are working, for either Imaging or Configuration from the latest SVN trunk. According to http://www.mail-archive.com/dev@commons.apache.org/msg23476.html this is a known regression in the maven-assembly-plugin. A bit of searching finds http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-553 which appears to be the problem. Workaround (taken from http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/commons/proper/pool/trunk/pom.xml?revision=1169875&view=markup): <build> <pluginManagement> <plugins> <plugin> <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.2-beta-5</version> </plugin> </plugins> </pluginManagement> </build> Please add that to the website (or how can I add it?). Also if Plexus is the current official way of releasing Commons components, why isn't that documented? This is now the 3rd build-breaking bug in Maven plugins I've found in my casual usage...
