deleting it afterwards is maybe not such a good idea. Imho all
releases must have a tag in the repo which exactly matches the

I probably left a few things unsaid... The release "branch" can be
deleted, the release "tag" would be in tags/1.0.0-M1.
svn copy trunk/ branches/1.0.0-M1
perform release process (part of the release process will create a
tags/1.0.0-M1 "tag"). The only difference is you're releasing from
branches rather than trunk.
After vote passes:
svn delete branches/1.0.0-M1 (this is optional, but encouraged, since
we don't really plan on supporting 1.0.0-M1).
