Hey all,

why do we have build.sh in the root directory of our release?  I had
ignored it before I saw John's comment in the incubator general list.  But
given that it's called build.sh, he's right: it is kind of misleading.

Build.sh doesn't work on my computer either, but I peeked into it to see
what it's supposed to do.  It looks like it will only work if the
community-app is successfully pulled from the mifos github repository in
the script.  It's a little shady to be getting sources from a non-apache
git repository in the build script of what is supposed to be a source code
release.

The mifos community-app is not even being checked as part of the Apache
Fineract release.  As such, if build.sh did work, it may actually be a
potential legal problem for the ASF if the community-apps source become a
quasi-component of Fineract.

Since it doesn't work anyways, let's delete build.sh.  Then nobody can call
it and complain that our build doesn't work.

What do you all think?

Greets,
Myrle
