I merged the M2 branch with the latest changes from Dain, Blevins and Jencks.
I think the merge went pretty well considering I was doing it for the first time. However, the M2 build fails in the assemblies with the error shown below. I spent quite some time trying to resolve this but in vain :-( At this point, we have either of the following 2 options 1) simply revert my commits and try a merge again 2) fix this.
