Art,
Setting buildRelease=1 to one has no affect on the build. With that set when
I look at the build logs it still reports building the new Parser. We use to
set buildRelease=0 in all previous releases. Why they would swap this around
is beyond me! Can you forward details on to them because I can never seem to
get onto their mailing list.
