Why would you be using those while you are testing the release?

To be clear, the release process requires that we build the artifacts to be 
released and as part of the release process they are deployed to the Apache 
Nexus staging repository (which is in the link in the email). If the release 
passes I click a button in Nexus and the artifacts are pushed to Maven central, 
so they have to have the real release version in them. The distribution 
artifacts (the source and binaries) are extracted from what is in the staging 
repository and pushed to the ASF distribution directory. I cannot rebuild them 
again and change the version as that would require a new vote.
