Peter Somogyi commented on HBASE-21667:
---------------------------------------

I can't find explicit requirement that we need to set it but most Apache 
project use it (e.g. Phoenix, Accumulo, Ozzie set it, but Hadoop for instance 
does not).
The main benefit is parent pom sets <distributionManagement> [1] and defines 
'apache-release' profile that we rely on for publishing releases.

So basically the advantage is we don't need to have the profile defined in our 
main pom.xml.

[~busbey]: Do you know if parent pom is required by ASF policies?

> Move to latest ASF Parent POM
