Review comment:
Gradle started its own alternative to POM files for other Gradle
projects. When Geode moved to Gradle 6.x, we started publishing them to our
snapshot repository, and this XML tag in the POM is a bread-crumb to Gradle
projects to look-aside for that file.
Problem is, that the Gradle metadata does not handle all our dependency
declarations (I do not remember the actual failure at the moment) and
downstream projects were having an issue when the pulled the metadata file
instead of the POM. So we stopped publishing the metadata until there is a push
to restore it.
