Yes, it's created but not distributed.
There is no real reason but some historical "motivation".
First, I planned to provide the binary distribution for the users, but I
could not decide if we should ship the complete UIMA SDK and all other
dependencies with it. One the one hand, this would be necessary... on
the other hand its not the common use case for users. They nomally use
the update site or the maven artifacts as far as I know. So, I removed
the binary distrubution again. However, then the release process
uploaded the source-release to the staging site. If I remember
correctly, there is a switch in the build process that skips this, if
there is a binary distribution. Then I added it again, in order to use
our common build process without any additional ruta hacks. The
distribution is not up-to-date right now. My plan is to update it and
distribute it if anyone asks for it (not happened so far).
Best,
Peter

Question: When I build from sources, using the profile apache-release, it
creates a ruta-2.3.0-bin.tar (signed etc.) I don't see this listed as one of
the release artifacts in your email. I looked at ruta-2.2.1 distribution, and
it doesn't have this artifact either.
If it is not being distributed, is there any reason to build it? I had thought,
at one point, that Ruta could be used as a library, without the workbench, and
this packaging was for that purpose, but maybe I'm mis-remembering...
