[jbosside-dev] Building a standalone component for release using the releng system.

[Max Rydahl Andersen]

ok - so this did never work for me ;(

I tried multiple times over the weekend but I keep getting connection  
reset or other connection related issues.

Maybe this is because of being behind a sucky connection; but anyhow it's  
a pain.

>> builders=freemarker,hibernate-tools

>> $ cat product/versionTags/3.2.0.beta9.tags
>> hibernate-tools=beta9
>> freemarker=1.0.0.Beta2
>> hibernate-tools.cvs=TOOLS_3_2_0_beta8
>> freemarker.cvs=IDE_FREEMARKER_1_0_BETA2
>>
>> tests=3.2.0.beta9
>> tests.cvs=HEAD
>>
>> In this case I used an old tag just to verify things were working, so
