Your problem is that Marc, who is the man who would need to do this, doesn't appear to consider it an important thing to do. Try to convince him to put it on his checklist.I never considered tag'ng for minor releases as having any importance, since the tarball's themselves provide the 'tag' ... branches give us the ability to back-patch, but tag's don't provide us anything ... do they? That said, I can back-tag the whole source tree for past releases if ppl do think it is important, its just a matter of knowing the 'timestamp' to base it on, which I can do based on the dates of the tar files ...
to checkout something (without pulling the whole tarball).

Its not like tag'ng is hard to do ...
