Wendy Smoak commented on MRELEASE-558:
--------------------------------------

I'm not sure you'll know the final release repository when the release is 
staged.

And that repo could change in the meantime, if someone else deploys a release.  
(Say you are working on 2.1 and they release 3.0 after you stage and before you 
promote.)

I think the metadata should be done when the release is promoted.

> release:stage should merge metadata from repository.

> Currently the release:stage goal does its job well, except when creating

> The metadata contains only the version of the released artifacts. I think

> * upload it in the staging repository.
> This way, moving from stage repository to the release repository is a matter 
> of a simple copy. This is true especially at Apache.
