chmod in buildAndPushRelease.py
Hi Mike!

Happy Halloween! Say, what is this scare for in buildAndPushRelease.py? I
know you added it (well, 10 years ago!).

print(' chmod...')
run('chmod -R a+rX-w .')

This seems unnecessary to me - I realize it's to prevent modifications in
the future but... you know - why? And it requires a sudo or a chmod to wipe
a candidate release. Is this something you think is necessary?
