maven.username question

What is the explicit purpose of the maven.username property?

Initially I had setup such that maven.username was a generic user for our development team on the machine serving as our internal remote repository and project web server.  So that worked fine for all the deploy goals pushing out to that server.

Then I started to think that it would be better to set up maven.username to be the developer's specific username (which is there NT userid, cvs username, unix account name, etc...).  The problem I ran into with this, however, was on attempting to deploy the project website using site:deploy.  The issue had to do with the fact that different users were now owners  (it was actually the chmod command which failed).

How does everyone usually handle this?
