Description

The Maven deploy plugin supports the file: protocol.

This would be very useful for testing deployment without needing to connect to people.a.o.

If the artifacts look OK, they could then be packed and uploaded as described in http://commons.apache.org/releases/prepare.html#Create_the_Release_Candidate_Website, but with the benefit that the generated artifacts are guaranteed to be the same.

Patch to follow.
