I'd agree here. a zip of the build directory is not a binary release. If we are interested in doing separate broker and client packages then the 'ant release-bin' currently generates a useful package.
I think that it would be good if the other packages management cli, qman etc all had a release-bin target that would correctly package up their files for a binary release.
