The javadoc plugin you removed is in the reporting section of the pom.
That is used when running `mvn site` The other one is part of the dist
profile, The dist profile is more or less dead code right now, but it's
intention is to be run when we are building the binary and source distribution
tar balls. I think both are needed if we ever get the dist profile working.
