> Apache Software Foundation releases Source Tarballs only.
> Our build system builds a source tarball, but it had a slightly different purpose, more like a "reference" than the actual release.
> Any binaries that we ship, are not really ASF releases, but convenience packages, and secondary in nature to the source release.
> THEREFOR, it is important that 
>    -a. The current src/ directory where the source is built into in the tarball is removed and moved up to its root level.- See 916cc4c
>    b. Only what we consider "releasable" will be released in that source form
>    -c. That building from that distributed source files, accurately builds the binaries- See ac7d88a, and 4f2a0b0
>    -d. Instructions for downstream packagers on how to build (everyone doesn't know Gradle)- See ac7d88a
> Once the binaries are built, both with Java 7 and Java, we need to verify that the SDK functions as expected.
