The ASF release artifacts must be signed and hashed. AIUI that requires them to be attached to the build, which in turn causes them to be uploaded to Nexus staging. Maybe it's possible to control those two operations independently; I don't know enough Maven. In any case, the artifacts need to be generated, signed+hashed, and then uploaded to dist/dev for the release vote. One way to do this is via the Nexus staging site. > Gruss > Bernd > -- > http://bernd.eckenfels.net > > > > > On Sun, Dec 25, 2016 at 12:02 AM +0100, "Apache" <ralph.go...@dslextreme.com> > wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > Maven is going to publish all the artifacts that are built to the repository. > This isn’t necessarily a bad thing as people can look at them all in one > place during the vote.
