I'm -1 to voting on patch sources vs a whole IDE patch release (even if +1 to anyone else RM'ing it! ;-) ). I think the way that the patch release was done previously would be difficult to achieve with the new build system. We need to ensure that even patch releases end up with consistent build numbers / git hash info. I also think the patch voting was more complicated for voters, and "awkward" from an Apache compatibility point of view. Hence suggesting we still do a vote on the full sources built on netbeans-TLP, but only nominate required binaries.

Although again I'd vote -1 on splitting the UC for the distribution in two. Mainly from a downstream distribution / derivative perspective - enlightened self interest at play there! :-) However, we do serve the catalog from the VM, and the catalog can have absolute rather than relative links, meaning we don't need to serve the updated artefacts themselves the same way. Still, the other thing we need to keep in mind is that we may be starting to ship installers that can install specific clusters. One way of upgrading such a release later is to install another cluster via UC? Not having them signed / having multiple centres may also be a problem there.
