The plugin only finds the assemblies, and the .asc files. We’ve been using the 
created signatures from nexus. So, I actually am creating the same signature 
files in the plugin. So, we have some leeway in deciding what sorts of 
signatures we want to upload to the “dist” svn repo. The m2 artifacts, on the 
other hand, I am leaving alone entirely.
