The maven instructions currently have you attempt to deploy directly to
people.apache.org. Then as a separate step sign the jars and ftp the
*.asc files to the server. There are alternate instructions in case the
deployment doesn't work (which it didn't for me), which have you make a
local deployment where you can go ahead and sign the jar files and then
sftp all the files over to people. Since you have to sftp anyway, I
think the local deployment is cleaner. Any objections to changing the
instructions to just cover the local deployment /sftp option?
