Benson/Ian-

I've tried pushing artifacts to staging at repository.apache.org.
Could you verify that it works for you? I'd like Giri to take a look
at this before we publish it to the release repo, but if you could
check this in the interim that would be great.

Giri has been working on an ant target as you describe, HADOOP-6382. I
used it to create and push these. If you have experience working with
ant/ivy/maven, your review of this issue would help us commit it to
0.20.3 and speed future releases. Thanks -C

I see 0.20.2 in the Nexus UI and download it from there but I can't
reach it via direct http, which is what maven would use -- Nexus
complains that https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachehadoop-009/
doesn't exist and indeed it doesn't show up in the listing at
https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories

The build completed successfully after adding the following to the
repositories section maven/pom.xml file and bumping hadoop's version
to 0.20.2 (instead of snapshot).

    <repository>
      <id>Apache</id>
      <url>https://repository.apache.org/service/local/repositories/orgapachehadoop-009/content</url>
      <snapshots>
        <enabled>false</enabled>
      </snapshots>
      <releases>
        <enabled>true</enabled>
      </releases>
    </repository>

Not sure why it is not:
https://repository.apache.org/service/local/repositories/releases/content
(releases or staging vs. orgapachehadoop-009), but I'll chalk that up
to the fact that Chris hasn't pushed it there yet. As a result I can't
really comment on the permanacy of the repository above either.

Regardless, I'll post a patch on the jira so others can give it a whirl.
