Tested, works fine on Chrome28 and IE 10.  Firefox 22 fails the flash
player test and displays the get flash player link.  Not sure if this is a
new problem.  Anyone else has this problem?

I dont think it is really required to vote on the installer badge.  It is
not really 'deployed software'.  I agree with your quick fix of the
problem.  We cannot afford to wait 72 hours for fixing stuff broken on the
website.

It is just a 'release build' in the IDE.  Do you think we need an ant
script for this?

Thanks for fixing it so quickly!
