+1 about adopt taglibs doc fro commons..but...
AFAIK a branch ( or tag ) can be made from a single file in a repository
to a complete directory hierarchy, nothing stops the user of CVS to do
this kind of things.. using "cvs -z3 tag -b qq qq.java" command you can
branch a single file i.e. or a subdirectory on a repository can have his
own set of branch and tags...without need to tag or branch a entire
repository...
So, What are you talking about Craig? i'm lost about the problems you
named..

One technical note that affects both Commons and Taglibs is the fact
that
CVS branches are global to an entire repository. Therefore, if one
taglib
(or Commons package) creates a branch "rel2", then nobody else can use
that name. We might want to think a little more about the long term
impacts of this little detail.
