Is a "github release" really something we want to have? As far as I have
now read (I am still a novice at github) a release seems to be a tarball
based on the content of the repo. A proper release, however, needs to be
built with "make dist[check]" otherwise folks cannot simply run
./configure. Or does github do the "make dist" (and if so, how does this
work for non-autoconf projects)? If a github release is a proper release,
I'm happy to add it. If not, I think it will cause confusion.

Comments, anyone?

Regarding the mailed tarball: that was just a convenience because I did not
mange to get the official one up on the server in time. I admit I was too
focused on getting the packages done that I forgot to do this before the
rsyslog release.

That will change today.
