Actually, no. It uploaded your changes to an FTP server.

There was also a hidden release manager mode, which caused it to list the 
directory in the FTP server and download everyone's files. That way, the 
release manager got a listing of all the changes that had been checked by 
everyone and what was left. That's how the release manager knew who to nag to 
write their changelogs.

This is brought to you from the secret society of release management. In the 
next installment, Jason will tell you about a tool called jollybumper. :-)
