Incubator maven artifacts on maven central
Infrastructure has been getting requests from incubating projects
to put their wares on maven central via the Nexus installation on
repository.apache.org. I have been quietly objecting to these actions
to no avail based on the grounds that the Incubator PMC Chair is
unaware of any policy changes in this regard, so I would like
clarification before continuing to honor any further requests.
Some people claim there was a vote held in October which settled the
matter, but as far as I can tell the results were a long way from
establishing consensus amongst the IPMC. So what's the story, has
the policy changed or hasn't it? I'm looking for a definitive
answer to a straightforward question, not lots of opinions of how
things aught to be.
Thanks. Please cc me on replies as I'm not a subscriber.

Incubation Policy [1] now says: "[...] the Podling MAY choose to
distribute approved releases through other channels like the central
Maven repository."
The policy change was made in revision 704280 [2] (see also
INCUBATOR-82 [3]) based on the result of a vote on this mailing list
[4].
