I read through these links.  I don’t think they answered the question as
to whether any projects release one and only one source package that is a
-sources.jar.

For example, I noticed that [3] also has a zip with a -release suffix with
additional content.  In [5], Ctakes has a tar.gz source package.  In [6]
Gora has a separate link to release artifacts.  We can’t see what they put
on dist/dev, but on dist/release there are zips and tar.gz files but no
jars.  The -source.jar appears to be almost like an expected part of a
Maven release/distribution, but at least these two projects seem to also
create zips and tar.gz files as official artifacts.  Even Maven [7] has
zips and tar.gz files.
