Chetan, That is really good to use Apache Maven Staging repo for our release process in future. So far our release tool is openwhisk-release: https://github.com/apache/incubator-openwhisk-release. Either manual or automated mode can push the artifacts into https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/openwhisk/.
I was wondering if Maven release can be integrated to current process. Feel free to open an issue and draft the plan. Best wishes.

Going forward we should look into including Maven release of various sub modules in main OpenWhisk repo like openwhisk-common, openwhisk-controller etc as part of vote. Until vote they would be present in Apache Maven Staging repo and post vote they would be publish to global Maven repo. See [1] for reference.
