What's the SVN tag for the release? It's useful to be able to compare the source archive with SVN to check if there are any missing or extraneous files.
It's also useful to compare the tar and zip versions of the archives - it's not unknown for these to be different (ignoring differences in source file line endings, which may be intentional). In this case they are OK. One minor problem I noticed: the LICENSE file contains some odd characters towards the end which don't display well.
