So far, so good, but we still don't shapshort linaro-image-tools along
with releases.

This will become a problem because l-i-t evolves over time -- I've
already had to start explaining to people how to check out old
versions of l-i-t in order to make use of the linaro-m release images.
 Installing the (unsupported) linaro-m release for panda doesn't work
with current l-i-t, for example.

To be fair, this is more of an issue for releases.linaro.org (where
people will tend to need a specific, old version of l-i-t) than for
snapshots.linaro.org.  But it's something we need to think about.

Cheers
---Dave
