This should be fine. SVN tags are *not* distributions.

Can you please confirm this is the case? In which case, we'll of course
comply.

Nope, that can't really be confirmed. Apologies for any confusion.

Your distribution must correspond to subversion

And for the record, I'm also against making this a rule in the future. I can think of many good reasons why there is some disconnect.

otherwise it's very hard to track (...)

I can think of many good ways to track exactly what goes into a distribution and how, that do not require satisfying this rule.

I think you are confusing requirements with a particular approach to satisfying those requirements.

We should not dictate every detail of how projects do release management or build engineering. The best way to do those things depends on the project. (And nobody likes being dictated how to do things, either.)

cheers!
