It is quite possible for a project to have multiple gump descriptors,
and for some or all of them to specify a tag.

My personal opinion closely matches Matthew's.  If you want to stabilize
development of 2.1, and encourage development of 3.0, then name 2.1 a
branch.  If you want to encourage development of two divergent code
bases, then create two CVS trees.

Either way, this is a decision that the James developers are free to make.
