We currently have some expectations about what artifacts are created for apache builds, such as javadocs and source jars, and specifically artifact signatures. Currently each project must configure the current release profile in their own top level pom. This raises the bar of entry for new projects and creates more work for us to help them get it sorted out.

I'd like to take the maven release profile and release plugin config and push it up to the apache pom to make it consistent and easy for all apache projects to produce proper releases. I think to do it and avoid conflicts with any existing profiles, I would change the profile name from "release" to "apache-release" and activate that by default. Does anyone see any downsides to this?
