Description

The targets in the current build script are not as granular as they can be. The build script can be restructured to provide more granular targets (e.g., build a src zip only or build a bin zip only, clean, clean_all, clean_all_all). This will be helpful as the project grows and more build options are needed (e.g., for the upcoming functional test cases we could introduce targets like "build_tests_src" and "build_tests_bin"). Granular targets will potentially allow for better reuse of targets as dependencies of new targets.

I'll post a reworked build.xml shortly for everyone to review.
