Every project seems to have a different convention, and some are not consistent within themselves. I do not like the redundancies in the names. The tag "name" is the URL, for example: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/commons/proper/commons-build-plugin/tags/1.4 Not just the last little bit at the end. There is no risk of confusion. When in your example you list http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/commons/proper/commons-build-plugin/tags/ you are listing the commons-build-plugin tags in the first place! I do not see the need for redundancy. It's like naming files in a directory with the containing directory in the file name. Might have been a practice inherited from CVS for all I know.
