The page describes the process for create a new distribution "kit" for XAP. A "kit" is the either the zip or tarball that contains all the files that will be submited for the release.
*Steps to create the release*
* Run ant using the build-manufacturing.xml file from a command prompt:
\\
ant -buildfile=build-manufacturing.xml
\\
This will run the "manufacturing" task inside the ant file.
\\
* Requirements for running the file. You will need to change SVN setup in your ant classpath. This manufacturing process checks out the complete source tree to use as the basis for the build.

You can download the [SvnTask] files at http://subclipse.tigris.org/svnant.html . Download and unzip the archive on that page, and put the .jar files from the 'lib' folder in your ant/lib folder
