Correct

That was the main reason behind my work: using released packages gives more
confidence to admins of production systems

I am building using my home pc at the moment, and I do  not think it has
enough horsepower  to withstand a publication via adsl. Plus I use VC 2005
express, so the dlls built are probably not usable by anybody. But I would
be happy to collaborate... btw: I have already updated the build scripts,
and will upload them to gggeek.altervista.org asap
