 With automated builds, we will want a way of distinguishing which version
 of the application a user is running by inspecting any of the various
 version properties (dlls, server version number, etc, etc).

 On the -internals list, we agreed to do this by using a fixed
 Major.Minor.Point, and then basing .Build on the SVN revision mod 32767.
 E.g.: 2.1.0.3802

 This needs to be done in an automated manner so that the build system can
 do this without manual intervention.
