**[Brian E Fox](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=brianf)** commented A little history on this setup: It was moved to the ASF pom from the Maven pom when we tried to provide correct defaults for all ASF projects built with Maven after a lengthy discussion on legal about minimal release requirements. The conclusion was to encapsulate best practices so projects that aren't maven experts can still get meet the release requirements. This particular configuration of the release plugin dates back to the very first setup of the release profiles in the Maven pom, specifically added here: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=502422 a little over 4 years ago. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
