AFAICT you should be able to (temporarily, for > good) deploy to people.a.o. The whole point is that we can no longer release via people.a.o because of the switch to Nexus. It has been made quite clear that a project can use either Nexus or people.a.o but not both. For Tomcat to use Nexus, the Tomcat release scripts need to be updated and they have not been. > Antonio > > P.S. Your project is a mess to be a Maven project.

This is purely about providing the Tomcat JARs as Maven artefacts in Maven Central for others to use as they wish.
