I think you should make a distinction between a source jar, and the
distribution. The source jar is what people attach in their IDE's, the
source distribution is used to build.

The source jar should be named: pivot-1.1-sources.jar
(artifactId-version-classifier.jar)

If you make this distinction: a sources jar for inclusion in IDE's and
a source distribution for building, extending etc. it would make it
easy for your users, and especially for Maven users that decide to
include pivot in their poms.
