Because that is where Maven deploys them. AFAIK Maven does not currently support independent deployment of the source and binary archives. They are either excluded from deployment, or they are uploaded to the repo with the Maven jars. We then vote on the staging repo which contains both Maven and dist/ release archives. On successful vote, the dist/ (bin/src) archives are copied to dist/. They are then deleted from Nexus so they don't end up duplicated in the main Maven repo, but AIUI that step can be omitted. >> * Promote > > This is point 13 of the "recipe". > >> The removal of the bin and src artifacts should be done, otherwise they >> are pushed to the maven repo.
