I uploaded lots of not-even-Mavenized prebuilt JARs to Maven Central and can tell you that you simply misunderstood these terms as essential requirements -- in fact most of them are only best practices. You do neither need to have the Sonatype POM, it will just make things easier, nor do you

Well, I guess I have my answer, I am alone :-). Many people are telling me that both the sonatype super pom and SNAPSHOTs are optional. I obviously have been reading the wrong instructions. This is the instructions I've followed:

IMO, while uploading to Maven Central is ideal, it is sufficient for a small OSS project to provide Maven artifacts *somewhere*. And you don't need a repository manager for this. You can automatically deploy your artifacts via SCP to a cheap shared host. That's what I do. On 1/5/14, Benson
