Last time you asked:

"
>   <siteAddress>maven.apache.org</siteAddress>
>   <siteDirectory>/www/maven.apache.org/</siteDirectory>
This is the web site address and directory, not a repo???"

:)

I was sure that you just wanted to get sure that I use distributionSite and
distributionDirectory.



distributionSite is not described in
http://maven.apache.org/reference/project-descriptor.html


While
distributionDirectory:

Optional. The directory on the web server where the final distributions will
be published. This is used when the distributions are deployed  

(the word deployed is a hyper link which points to "site" plugin)


I though that "final distributions" are the distribution of artifacts
delivered by projects: jars, javadoc, project src zipped, 

Now I see I finaly understand that you might want e.g to publish
"distribution" of 
entire project at sourceforge... and not to deploy to any repository.



If I am still wrong: can you then explain briefly the difference?

I want to centralized the code which does remote copying of the files
And I see now that "distribution" requires special handling ...  I will/want
to change my code to support it. 

BTW:

For the moment I have tested my API with username, user password 
kept in properties file. I think such approach is not acceptable.

You can use command line to pass properties to maven: 

maven  war:deloy -Dmaven.repo.ibiblio.password = ******


This is already better ... but still not perfect.

I will try to implement/use(if I find one) simple "Prompter" which will ask
to type your password (eventually to enter other required parameters which
are missing)
