My point is that I disagree with that. We have been bumping tags on files when releasing 2.0 since 2.0.16, and we aren't even talking about bumping a tag here. We are just talking about rolling the tarball on a different machine than was originally used. The code didn't change between the original tarball and the second, just the machine used to do the roll. Ryan
