As of January 2024, Sonatype is actively discouraging the legacy username & password method of authentication, recommending token authentication instead: * https://central.sonatype.org/news/20240109_issues_sonatype_org_deprecation/#support-requests * https://central.sonatype.org/publish/generate-token/ In this new scheme, the token is still split into a username/password format, and both are randomised strings, making the username portion a meaningful secret (ie one that can be revoked) and so worthy of being treated as a secret. Consequently, in this change username is now a GitHub workflow 'secret' parameter, rather than a simple input.
