Okay, thanks for clarifying.
Always good to be learning.

But yeah, it's scenarios like that (release-based builds) where automation and 
GitHub-ing things help.
When an actively maintained clone of PARMLIB, etc. are kept in GitHub, code 
reviews are a dream.
Ex: What changed since the last IPL, is just a matter of comparing 2 different 
commits.
Colored and all that.
