Yes, that makes sense. > (b) releases are tagged in the tags/ directory as "wagon-1.0-beta-2" etc > with all the modules together (at least after alpha-7, where there are > actually separate tags).

By the way, I probably haven't made it clear that I was just asking out of idle curiosity. I'm not intending to package it myself. So leap right in if you're interested!
