Tag naming rules:

- The names can be long
- They must start with a letter
- The allowable characters are:
          - letters
          - numbers
          - hyphens ("-")
          - underscores ("_")

Naming convention for releases and branches:

1. project_vX{_rY}{_mU}{_fV}

For all tags, including those listed below, you may use any combination of the following, but they must appear in the order listed.

X is the required version number, to be incremented with each new release.
Y is the release number, for minor changes for a given release.
U is the modification number, for further granularity.

This is the branch point, the "HEAD" for the branch. Do NOT move this tag!
