Ok, we can keep SNAPSHOT. I was just thinking it'll be nice if the tag sets the right version, for convenience. It's not so hard to do.
BTW, I don't build the code, just run jar-src so I can attach the source to the jars for debugging purposes. If we had packaged them already (not that I propose that we do that), I wouldn't be downloading the source at all.
