This is intentional and these serve different purposes and both are a good
idea. The source-release zip is the only actual artifact required and voted on
for a release at apache, the binary jars are provided as a convenience to
users. The -source.jar is another convenience to users as it's in a form that
IDEs are set up to consume easily paired with binary jars. For instance in
IDEA when you debug into a binary jar it doesn't have the source for, a
"donwload source" action appears and gets the ide to try to download the
-source.jar from the maven repo containing the binary jar.
> org.apache.aries.jmx at search.maven.org has empty source jar

> Go to http://search.maven.org/#search%7Cga%7C1%7Caries%20jmx and download the
> sources.jar file. It only has META-INF files, no source files. Same thing if
> you pull sources from repo1 via Maven or IDE.
