Fundamentally, I don't care too much about it either way, but the point is that specifically the site artifacts (and it's less about documentation than the reports - dependencies, quality etc.) do not evolve since the reports are relevant for that specific revision of code only. Les asked me to configure the pom so that the the site can be archived so I did. The site can be seen as supporting documentation for the release and it may be easier to view the produced web pages rather than browse the raw pom file, especially for people not familiar with Maven. Since the site's not supposed to evolve and any desired change in the site would require changes in the pom and the tag, at least the given meta-data for that release should be correct and reviewed and thus subject to a vote, don't you think? Your statement that it should be decoupled contradicts with the process that Maven (the project) has put forth so I assume your statement is your opinion rather than Apache's official position on it. Is that correct? Finally, do you think we should vote on 1.0.0 again, excluding the site or just perhaps word the release vote email differently the next time around?
