Distribution packages moved to GitHub releases

Due to recently introduced size limits, the Heritrix distribution packages (-dist.zip and -dist.tar.gz) can no longer be published to Maven Central. Instead, they will be made available on the GitHub release page.

The individual module binary, Javadoc, and source JARs will continue to be published to Maven Central.
