The configuration of the assembly-plugin in the project pom is what's giving me
problems. I tried this.
<build>
<plugins>
<!--
| This plugin configuration is responsible for
| creating binary distribution ZIP file which
| users can download, upzip, and easily execute.
-->
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>assemble</id>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>single</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<descriptors>
<descriptor>src/assemblies/source-release.xml</descriptor>
</descriptors>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
but it errors because it's looking for a JAR file from the project POM.
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

[INFO] Failed to create assembly: Error adding file to archive:
C:\workspace\timeserver\target\timeserver-parent-0.0.1.jar isn't a file.

Forget what I said, you only want the sources so you can run it from the
project pom. Take a look at the assembly descriptor of the maven project
itself.
