tags/foo is as mutable as releases/foo If a release needs to be cut, we can just do:
svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/wicket/releases/wicket-1.4.0 ./release.sh there are no changes to the release after it has been created. A social convention, just as tagging it. And this is the last thing I'll say about it.
