Oh - I think retroactively creating the tag would be useful. Thinking a little about it -I think our 0.5 branch/tag naming is broken: IMNSHO We should have a single 0.6 _branch_ and every release from it should be tagged. Leading to something like: branches/0.6 tags/0.6-release tags/0.6.1-release etc. The only work that should happen on the 0.6 branch would be related to a later release of the 0.6 line so I can't see the point of a 0.6-release branch (but I created it following the example from 0.5). So now I'm a bit stuck for tag names! I don't want to duplicate the branch name as it will confuse things. Suggestions?
