Well, I didn't want it as a replacement for a download-server. But I like javadocs and sources there. I just thought, it would not hurt - if I need to download something manually, I will usually go to the download-page of the project. But hey, if there are infra-limitations - ok. But i still think that the risk is low (without being in infra team) and the risk is higher to delete out something. This is why each project looks somehow different. >> Admitted, the technical possibility to download from the Maven mirrors >> exists.

If following your path I would: - wget the stuff to people - check the hashes - copy stuff to dist - remove commons-compress-1.1-bin.* and commons-compress-1.1-src.* from nexus - hit nexus release button Then the following artifacts are released: commons-compress-1.1-sources.jar* commons-compress-1.1-javadoc.jar* commons-compress-1.1.jar* commons-compress-1.1.pom* Is that correct? I have no problems with doing it like this but would like to find some consens on the commons project.
