Geir, if your statement were factually correct I would agree with
you, but we have not lost or hid any history. Go see for yourself.
$ cd tags/v1_0_M4
$ svn log project.properties
or
http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/geronimo/tags/v1_0_M4/
project.properties?rev=227113&view=log
You will find the entire history fir that file including all move and
copy commands.
Regardless, if you think it is so important to have two copies of the
same code in our active tree, then you resurrect the code.

Right, so deleting doesn't remove anything.
I think that hiding our history like this is a bad idea, and will
lead to even more confusion - if you don't want to make a mistake
and work on a branch accidentally, don't check it out.
Anyway, I can't see how removing the branch will prevent mistakes
while leaving the tag entry there. It looks the same.

Just to remind everyone, svn doesn't have branches or tags and
nothing is ever gone or deleted, everything is still around, and
at any point in time we can patch an old release if we feel it's
really necessary.
