Description
As part of ICE-6173, we manually constructed a bundle for ICEpush to publish it to the Sonatype repository. While possible, it's fairly time-consuming to do. Maven includes the ability to publish artifacts directly using the Maven poms themselves. This includes signing the artifacts and specifying the repository locations where they need to be copied to.

I checked in some changes to the build poms to allow for signing the artifacts before they are deployed. I also updated our build machine with the requisite settings and security information so that it can do the signing automatically. I added this feature to the nightly snapshot build and tested it - seems to work.
The last outstanding task is to potentially point directly to Sonatypes repository for releases. This will require a few more changes to indicate the correct repository, security settings, and possibly generating "release" poms that are simpler and cleaner than the ones we currently have in there.

While it's not yet automated, we've made an effort to put our official libraries on the Central repository (3.1 and 3.2 are available). And as per
ICE-8935, we've made some strides to start putting snapshots for 3.3 on our own repository that can be reached at http://anonsvn.icesoft.org/repo/maven2/snapshots/.
