That's true they don't cost a thing, but anyone looking at the tags and not 
knowing the history will get confused between cloudstack and cloudplaftorm and 
will get confused between version numbers.

I actually think it's almost a case of branding and that we need to protect the 
cloudstack brand. At the very least, if you want to keep the tags we should 
rename them to avoid confusion.
