Mark, the above issue mentioned by Antonio is what I think we already
encountered with broken maven-metadata.xml. That is

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52124

More detailed description is in
https://issues.sonatype.org/browse/MVNCENTRAL-139


Mark, when you do 7.0 releases, do you scp the maven-metadata.xml file?
Do you have all previous releases of 7.0 in your local repository (so
that the file is built correctly)?

If Nexus allows to prepare new releases without the need to keep old
releases around, I am +1 for it.
