+ Currently, the commons-parent build does not create the
+ * signatures (".asc"),
+ * checksums (".md5"),
+ * hashes (".sha1")
+ of the distribution files. Hence, you have to create them "manually"!
+ For the signature, the command would be
+ $ gpg -ab file-to-sign
+ For the hash and checksum, see e.g. the "Digest" Perl module.
