The rationale behind this is that we put a lot of effort in making
oak-segment-tar independent from the release process of Oak and I want to
keep it this way.

oak-segment-tar should be releasable at any time. If I had to launch a
quick patch release this morning, I would have to either revert your commit
or postpone my release until Oak is released.

Please don't let Oak impact the way we decided to manage oak-segment-tar.
