You don't have to change forges. That's not what we're asking. 

The problem we have allowing unchecked rsyncs is that in the past we find that 
the control over what is actually put in the repositories is not well managed 
in some cases. Using http://oss.sonatype.org helps us maintain a very high 
level of quality. It basically amounts to changing where you deploy to, not 
changing your forge. We also look at your repository and help cleanup any 
snapshot/release repository problems, and make sure there is no overlap with 
artifacts outside your groupId. Deploying to http://oss.sonatype.org also 
validates you have PGP signatures, javadocs and source JARs which is very 
important. We are not only trying to help make it easier for you the suppler of 
artifacts, but we are trying to protect our thousands of consumers from 
inadvertent yet frequent mistakes that can be made. We're trying to make this 
process scale which is why we are discouraging rsyncs.
