Re: nightlies vs release: two files

I'm trying to understand why the nightlies have a _bin.zip and _lib.zip
instead of just a single .zip like the official 2.4 release did.

I know the _lib.zip contains the third party jars and _bin.zip contains
everything else - but why not a single .zip like the official release?
