[Bf-committers] Blender 2.5x beta status

[Damien Plisson]

My build shell scripts are warming up for the 3 mac builds :)

BTW, do we keep .zip files or do we go with standard mac .dmg ?
.dmg are roughly 10% bigger but enable nice features such as background image, and explicit installation (copy to Application folder).
