Yes, but you didn't ask for a *good* reason, you asked for *the*
reason(s) and the whole "build in local tree and deliver" stuff is much
older than the CWSs. :-)

You misunderstood me. I meant that what currently is done in "deliver"
needs to be done in the build step if you omit the "delivery". Of course
if you only wanted to change the process for dlls that would be trivial.
But why not get rid of the local output for all "delivered" files...
