Hello there,

when. respinning a release it would of help IMO instead of deleting the tag
to rename it to e.g. maven-javadoc-plugin-2.9-rc1 using "svn mv".

By means of this you are able to easily diff between e.g. released 2.8 and
the final 2.9 as well as between 2.9-rc1 and the final 2.9.

Regards Mirko
