Flex release and build version number issue

Hi,

Think I've solved the build version number issue. The release is correct, but the the process/instructions for building a SDK for the framework need to be clearer. In order to run ide/flashbuilder/makeApacheFlexForFlashBuilder.sh you need to compile the source release, but if you're not careful in how you do that ie just do an "ant main" it will regenerate the flex-sdk-description.xml file and set the build version to 0.

Thanks,
Justin

Correct.  For a debug build we just left the build number as 0.  For a
release build you specify -Dbuild.number=x where x is generally the last
changed rev for the branch you are building.

Yep I can update some of the build notes from what I've found. There's a few other things as well I've noted along the way.

I don't know the version number stuff that well.  Any chance you can update
the release document [1] on the wiki yourself?
