We are doing exactly this. Our assembly is configured in a parent of a
multi-module build, but not attached to a phase because of issues with
assemblies and reactor builds. Assembly configuration is:
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<inherited>false</inherited>
<configuration>
<descriptors>
<descriptor>src/main/assembly/create-distro.xml
</descriptor>
</descriptors>
<appendAssemblyId>false</appendAssemblyId>
<outputDirectory>target/site</outputDirectory>
</configuration>
Our index.apt.vm has link to the release:
Release available at {{
http://somehostname/someproject${project.version}.tar.gz}}
And we run mvn package assembly:assembly site-deploy after a release has
been made.
