What is the difference between a remote (maven.repo.remote) and a central
(maven.repo.central) repository?

>From the user guide, it says that the central repository is 'the host that
Maven will attempt to deploy the distribution to during a dist:deploy'.
However, I noticed that seems like only the deploy plugin uses the central
repo.  The other 'deploy' goals from other plugins, including the
distribution plugin, all use the remote repository.  Why is there a
difference in the way deployment is managed?

To me, I would welcome a separate repo for deployment from the repo where
artifacts are downloaded.  For a simple reason, that I may want to set up a
central repo to house the artifacts I generated, while still continuing to
download from ibilio.

Any comments from Maven developers, or am I missing something?
