+ <!-- `project.build.outputTimestamp` is required to be present for
reproducible builds.
+ We actually inherit one from the `org.apache:apache` through our
parent `org.apache.logging:logging-parent`.
+ Though inheriting this property has two undesired consequences:
+ 1. `artifact:compare` dumps an `ERROR` log stating that this
`property should not be inherited but defined` (apache/logging-parent#50)
+ 2. This value is employed in various places while creating the
distribution
+ To mitigate these, we define a *dummy* value here and let the CI
replace it during a release.
+ Hence, *DO NOT MANUALLY EDIT THIS VALUE*! -->
