Definitely these. Ideally, the additional ability to distribute where developers are looking for such stuff (aka repo.maven.org). In essence, a reference, which others may use when starting to use that stuff in external projects. (As opposed to instructions like "Build it".) > A test completion certificate? Signed distributables? I am unaware of someone really bothering about either of these.
