The build is getting a little out of date. I'd like to update the parent to apache pom 6 and make some related changes to use the most up to date maven build recommendations. This will make it a lot easier to produce release candidates that follow the apparent details of apache release policy. It will also deploy snapshots and releases to the apache nexus instance which is much much much easier to use than the file based repo.

Also there's some stuff to produce source distros more or less automatically.

If we agree on this I'll file a jira as a sub-issue of https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-1896 , we also need a vote apparently. We can update the pom and start pushing snapshots immediately.

One other advantage of nexus is that we can use unique timestamped snapshots rather than non-unique "SNAPSHOT" snapshots which can reduce internal maven confusion a bit.

I'm primarily thinking of trunk here, I might be able to work on other active branches a bit if I know what they are :-)
