As requested by Andy, a big change to how the maven-dist occurs. Now, we copy over the main jars to the maven directory, rather than making their own. We then have a different pom for each of poi, -scratchpad and -contrib. Finally, put all the files under maven-dist into the right place for upload
Update the main .pom file based on advice from the repos team. Include the redirect pom, which needs to be placed under /poi/, to tell maven to switch to /org.apache.poi/, and detail this new pom in the release guide
