That is a good suggestion - looking at DC manifest, it already captures some know-how and tips. We could start to do the same for AI. I think that the advantage of having those manifests self-explaining is that it is easier and faster to customize them according to the particular needs. If appending build to the 'entire' might be considered as supported method to install desired build, I think those changes could be taken as fix for bug 6724. Thanks ! Jan
