I want to just put a bit of emphasis on the global impact of this POM.
This POM gets advertised as the appropriate parent for \any/ Apache
project building with Maven. As such, I submit to you, it should
supply all of the necessary settings (e.g. repository locations,
deployment) and no surprising extra behavior. If the Land Of Maven
wants a policy of running a full build on prepare, I'd respectfully
ask you to embody that policy in a POM that isn't the one advertised
to the complete Apache community.
...which is why I said in another branch of this thread, that I'm okay
with pulling this setting down into the maven parent POM(s).

the SCM, which is probably as ugly.
I'm not as concerned about spending a little extra time to reduce the
chances of things going wrong in the release process, since this seems to
happen often enough already...and causes a HUGE waste of time in some
cases.
If we were releasing a 100+ module project structure, then I'd be willing
enough to give on this point and say that accepting a little extra risk
in
the 'perform' phase isn't that big of a deal. But, at least in Maven, the
releases aren't that big.
For Lukas: I agree with John here.
For everyone else: +1
For everyone: I agree too. Especially with the part about things going wrong
often enough.
