Sources ZIP not usable in Maven repository

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Since the sources ZIP is more than just a regular sources ZIP it is not usable 
in a Maven repository.
In order to be able to successfully import lastfm-java to a Maven repository 
we'd need a last.fm-bindings-0.1.0-sources.zip that contains nothing but 
sources. The de/umass folder structure would have to be placed in the root of 
the ZIP.
The Javadoc artifacts would have to go into a separate JAR file.

Ahh, sorry, make that last.fm-bindings-0.1.0-sources.jar instead of ZIP, that's 
even better.

Merging this with the other maven request, since this is not an issue until we 
actually use maven.

I disagree, it /is/ an issue.
Every project that depends on Maven has to deploy the lastfm-java artifacts to 
a local/internal repository. The way it is now, every project has to fix the 
provided sources ZIP themselves before it can be deployed to their repository.

There is a pom.xml available in trunk that you can use to build a maven source 
package locally. Does that not work?
