Yes, actually I tried the old ones first, since I had a master checkout and 
initially forgot your recommendation to use 4.12.

I agree that the 4.12 scripts are easier because they automate more things.

I just had to disable the call to pack_l10n.sh since there's no l10n for 
frameworks yet, apart from that it works great.

Yep, Ben was CC'ed in my previous mail :)

4.12, since that's what I was using, but with the idea of it getting merged to 
master at some point.

Yep, exactly my thinking too.

Oh. Great idea, thanks.

What do you think about the doubled space requirements on the server though?
Well, maybe that's a question for sysadmin too...

OK, I'll look at that when doing the actual release.

I guess it should not be triggered by the main pack_all.sh script though,
since that's "safe to play with locally" while tagging (and pushing the tags) 
is for real, so I'll make it a separate tag_all.sh script.
