A couple of things still worry me, specifically tagging...

1) Is there any need to keep "tags/START_RELEASE_WICKET_2_0" once
you've copied it to "releases/WICKET_2_0" & "branches/WICKET_2_0"?

2) After "commit changes to releases/WICKET_2_0", shouldn't we have a
"copy releases/WICKET_2_0 to tags/RELEASE_WICKET_2_0"?

Notes:
  I don't like the idea that we're not tagging the exact release
version, which is the dichotomy introduced by the 'release branch'
idea.  If someone wants to take the source & build it locally, what
should they use?

  I'd expect that anyone coming to this with normal SVN experience
will expect that a tag called anything like "RELEASE_WICKET_2_0" would
involve the actual release version.  (Prefixing it with "START_" won't
mean anything unless there's another tag with either "END_" or no
prefix.) If there are no tags, then they might look elsewhere
(/releases?) but the expectation will be to use /tags.
  If they do however, they've got to take on trust that the
differences between that and the actual release source are not
significant for them, whereas I'm not really sure that's a good
idea...
