Hi Woonsan,

Thank you for your efforts to make sure the release process is correct.

1) Regarding the "source-release" bundles:

I *think* I found the problem as to why they are missing -- it is likely due to the following config of the maven-assembly-plugin in the apache-16 parent-most pom descriptor:

     <runOnlyAtExecutionRoot>true</runOnlyAtExecutionRoot>

See: https://search.maven.org/remotecontent?filepath=org/apache/apache/16/apache-16.pom

Since we ran the Maven release plugin from the portals-pluto root, none of the jars like pluto-container-api.jar, etc. had the companion "source-release" bundle.

The reason why the archetypes worked, is because I released them individually from their respective "root" directories.

BTW, as far as I can determine, the "source-release" problem is not new. It has been there for many years. For example, see:
https://search.maven.org/#search%7Cgav%7C1%7Cg%3A%22org.apache.portals.pluto%22%20AND%20a%3A%22pluto-container-api%22

Anyway, I'll fix it before re-releasing.

2) Regarding Git, in the 3.0.0 release Scott pushed the 3.0.0 *commits* for the vote, but _not_ the *tags* until the vote was final. That worked well because he actually had to roll-back the release. I recommend we do it that way again.
