Agreed, but I think the original question dealt with a different problem. The 
question as I understand it is : "Is it ok to provide a stable (review) 
version by only providing a tag". Personally I have not made up my mind yet. 
This certainly makes it harder to get at the reviewed library. Yes, it is not 
that hard but it is another problem to deal with (read another manual to 
read).

What about a tag is ok as long as an archive(zip) is provided in the files 
section?
