Hi all,

when checking my latest changes on Apache's Jenkins I noticed that it was 
randomly failing in the past.
A quick look showed me that it was generally due to the unavailability of 
playerglobal and airglobal on Adobe's servers.

The reason for it randomly failing is simply, that some of the Windows nodes 
have the artifact in their local repo from older builds and some don't.
So, the build-success generally depends on which node it's run on.

To get a deterministic build behavior back, I disabled the "with-swf" profile 
on the Jenkins job. This can be added back again as soon as the playerglobal 
replacement is ready.

I also stated updating the ASJS build configuration to also build the 
distribution and I'll add a configuration block that makes the distribution 
artifacts available here:
https://nightlies.apache.org/

In general, that would be the perfect place to download the nightlies from 
instead of the current AWS hosted CI server.

But a decision on that will be up to you folks.

I just want to prepare this so I can generally mark this task as "done" for me 
personally.

Chris
