Hi Larry,

Thanks for tracking down this problem!

Sounds good to me!

Actually Google Code SVN isn't fast enough to be used in this way. But 
there's a better way. Check out the static-site subproject

    http://code.google.com/p/simile-widgets/source/browse/#svn/static-site

Then use svn:externals to create a link from ajax/2.1/ and timeline/2.2/ 
to the correct tags. When you check that in, I believe a shell script at 
static.simile.mit.edu will do svn update to serve the new APIs within an 
hour or so.
