I don't see any reason to change the urls though. If the nightly builds don't want to release an RC then it shouldn't use the "rc" profile. The profiles were set up to make sure that nothing get's deployed unless someone explicitly says it should. The comment in the patch indicates that it might "if users are working locally on people.apache.org". IIUC you are not supposed to do building and releasing on that machine. You also risk that someone changes the url to something that is completely wrong. Unless there is another reason for it, I'm -1 on that change.
Understood your concerns about people.apache.org. Nevertheless, I see use cases for a pluggable URL. For example, when doing deployment for the first time, I was very cautious and feared I might do things wrong. If I had had the chance to *test* deployment by simply specifying a property like -Dcommons.deployment.rc.url=file:///tmp/test-repository, then that would have been nice. I'd like to see it. Besides, I do not see any negative side effects. So I'd like to ask you to reconsider your -1.
