Um...don't worry about it this week? Your builds come out more frequently than the b-numbers are updated...so it's really the date in the version string that matters when tracking things back to the source revision id.

I agree that someone at Oracle should have tagged the repo with the b211 tag at the moment they produced a build, but they are all at JavaOne right now and it's been a little hectic pulling that developer preview together...so I'm just going to focus on fixing bugs for now.
