General preparations before any publishing:
1 - Generate a standard Tomcat release.
    This will generate a mvn.properties.release file as part of the tag. It
    should include the property settings required to complete the release.
2 - Should any of the properties need to be overridden, create a
    mvn.properties and override as necessary.

To publish a snapshot do the following:
1 - ant -f mvn-pub.xml deploy-snapshot
    This populates
    https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/snapshots/org/apache/tomcat/

To release do the following:
1 - ant -f mvn-pub.xml deploy-release
    that step creates a staging area in
    https://repository.apache.org/index.html#stagingRepositories
2 - check the upload and then close the repository
3 - include the repository in the VOTE thread
4 - in https://repository.apache.org/index.html#stagingRepositories release it

To install in your maven repo:
1 - ant -f mvn-pub.xml generic-install
