The benefit is that staging Maven artifacts is no more a problem, since Nexus (professional edition) allows an easy promotion to the main repository. The main Apache pom contains most of the configuration needed to deploy artifacts correctly. And this is the standard at Apache now. > And would this entail abandoning our Ant release process for Maven? No, the binaries will be uploaded in people.apache.org, only Maven artifacts are interested. Moreover, Nexus has a nice "Staging upload" feature, that allows to upload Maven artifacts in a staging repository, to allow the vote process.
