I don't see any harm in them at least staying correct for the trunk;
no maintenance to keep that true.

If all these are used for is stuff we don't actually use (we don't
generate a web site, we don't use maven for releases, etc) and they
add overhead by requiring us to tweak a whole lot more stuff every
time we release (on top of the ridiculous amount of stuff maven
already seems to require us to tweak for every version change) I'd
suggest just not having it.
