It's what uploads your releases to the web server so others (perhaps
inside your company) can download the releases automatically with
Maven.

That's maven site:deploy which at this point is the only goal not
using the artifact plugin.

No, anyone with access to the web server can do this.

Lots of ways - but that's beyond this email :)

No, the maven.xml is meant to go along with project. In many cases it
isn't even necessary - the defaults are enough.
