I second that. So long as we do not make an actual tag w/ that date,
i.e. have a time series of release candidates in the tags directory.

Good idea Paul...I like the date time string idea.

that the

geronimo-jetty-1.0-rc[n].tar.gz for example. Where [n] is the

will
still be
geronimo-1.0. Thoughts?
Matt, including a notation in the filename seems like a good
idea and
could
help prevent confusion. I've also seen projects use a date string
instead
of a release candidate number for this purpose. Using a date
string is
helpful since it makes it obvious when the image was created plus
avoids
publicizing how many unsuccessful attempts there have been (not
saying
that
would be an issue in this case :o)
Best wishes,
