I already finished the source release step but then I saw the binary
release step.
Agree that binary release needs more work.
But this tool will be used as a CLI (binary release) from the users. So, I
don't see a value in just a source release.

I will try to replicate the things from the main repo for the binary
release or reach out to others for guidance on this.
We can have this release soon.
