It is interesting to have it variable in several cases :
- You want to validate your builds on several environments. I'm just =
moving my infrastructure and I'm very happy to have that because I'm =
able to run a secondary build environment (svn/hudson/nexus) without =
touching our production used by developers
- You want to deploy the project in another repository because you are =
forking it (for an OSS project) and you can redefine this property =
instead of using the -DaltDeploymentRepository of the deploy plugin =
which has severals bugs.
