AIUI all ASF releases MUST have _buildable_ source. The source jars
included in those directories are not buildable. The idea behind this
is that the ASF deals with source code and releases are of source
packages that enable anyone to go tinker with that source, but you
can't do so much useful tinkering if you can't build the source. See
http://www.apache.org/dev/release.html#what-must-every-release-contain
and various emails that fly around on other mailing lists.

I believe the latest Maven release plugin and Apache parent pom.xml
will create the correct packages now. You probably could reconstruct a
buildable source from whats in the Maven repo and if this was a small
release like a single Maven plugin or something it could have been
argued that this was ok and could just be updated to the new Maven
release for next release, but this is something like 20 modules so to
recreate it would be quite a job - working out and recreating the
correct directory structure, unzip all the source jars into the
correct place, download all the pom.xml's and rename them and put them
in the right place etc.

Or anyone leap in here and explain i've misunderstood the policy.
