+1.  We did do a release branch at one point (which is likely completely 
stale), but we've never invested any release engineering efforts into MTT to 
make a packaged/perfect tarball -- mainly because, at least in the beginning, 
MTT was just for Open MPI core developers, and we were comfortable telling them 
"get a source checkout and run from there."

If MTT is growing up to be a real package in OpenHPC, then it probably does 
need to get some release engineering lovin'.
