2.4.0 release doesn't include build directory
When downloading the 2.4.0 release as a .zip archive. The contents doesn't include a build/ directory. @Jyyjy is this the intended behavior?
I wouldn't say it's intended, but I don't think excluding build/ violates Apache policy. I'm not opposed to changing the release process such that future releases include build/ in src, but I would oppose patching 2.4.0 just to include build/.
There's two main release artifacts, the src archive and the bin archive. And there's two main places where you would download these artifacts, Apache and GitHub.
I see that there is no build/ in the src artifacts in either of these places. And the bin artifact is missing from the GitHub tag artifacts. There is an additional source code artifact generated by default in the GitHub tag artifacts that contains build/ because it is a simple snapshot of the repo.
