I am not clear about what is being suggested for this plan. If it is a "milestone" then it should not end up on the public central repository. If it is a "release" then it should be accompanied by the sources, etc. Also it should be on the w.a.o/dist mirrors as well as whatever Maven does. http://www.apache.org/dev/release.html#releases http://www.apache.org/dev/#releases -David
