for 99% jakarta projects I don't think that the statement 'In each 
project, there exists a committer who has access to ossrh nexus to 
verify staging/release and who can push required 'drop'/'release' 
button' is true, pmc would probably know that for sure.
Only jenkins jobs do have such power here - that is not what you wanted 
to hear, right?
Indeed, it's the polar opposite actually.
What I hoped was the case, that while indeed there isn't a committer in every project with access, but that a committer and/or project lead could ask someone from Eclipse to do the release. E.g. just like we create bigzilla issues for setting up the JIPPs etc.
Kind regards,

the bug was basically that the call to rc-release goal in the script was 
not guarded by 'if', so instead of rc-release being executed 
conditionally, it run every on each job run.
