That sounds like a nice edition.
Is anybody able to confirm that they can reproduce the build (minus
any
unavoidable timestamp differences)?
Reproduce the build? Eh? Why does that matter?
Checking that an independent party can reproduce the release helps
ensures that a security fix release can be prepared if the need arises
and that all the files needed to produce the build are actually in the
Subversion repo and not just on the release manager's machine. Just a
good sanity check
