Thanks Chris for spotting the inconsistency. I could see 3.4.8 release misses signing of *.pom.asc file. I think this is excluded by mistake, I will include this also in my next release candidate and remove unwanted signing of other files. Shall I cut another release candidate ?
It would be good to update "HowToRelease" section about the dist-maven signing part.
