Sure it is a lot of effort and coffees I guess but maybe because I can't see why attributing a build number only at release time would make it harder and how it can be missed if it is done that way, I can't see the relation with the fact it makes it harder.

That could and has caused errors, one of the 4.10.0 RC had to be redone because of this exact issue. Making and testing a RC is a lot of effort and I rather make that easier rather than harder or ending up with an RC missing a build number. Take a look at building the release here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLEX/Release+Guide+for+the+SDK "Other ant targets you may want to become familiar with are source-release, source-package, binary-release, binary-package and rat-check. These are useful if you modify the files in the kit and you want to short circuit some of the build process to test your changes." Thanks, Justin
