I wondering a bit why this is new to anybody. Based on the fact that the ASF Linux bots had a different baseline and the windows machine also lacks some important parts for some time (can't remember for sure) I have built the release on private machines. Means a local windows build machine, local Linux CentOS build VMs and of course my Mac prepared with the proper baseline. But this no big thing and ones the CentOS VMs are in place it is easy to use the same settings that are probably still the same as documented on our dev snapshot wiki page. Maybe minor changes regarding languages. Anyway we can quite easy compare it. Andre Rist got my build scripts for Mac already and I offered my help... Nothing special new we just did it and didn't wait on somebody else.
