Release tagging clarification

[Lillian Angel]

Hi,

There has been some confusion with regards to the tagging for the 
upcoming icedtea6-1.5 release. I usually tag the repo, and do all the 
testing based on that tag. Sometimes, testing fails and new commits need 
to be added under the current tag. I think it would be best for everyone 
if we started appending "rc1, rc2 ..." to the release tags until the 
testing is complete and everyone agrees that we can proceed with the 
release.

I have renamed the current icedtea6-1.5 tag to "icedtea6-1.5rc1", and 
tagged the repo again as "icedtea6-1.5rc2". I am starting a new round of 
testing tonight on the current state of the repo. I will announce 
everytime I tag the repo for a new release candidate.

Just because the repo was tagged, it did not mean the release was 
complete. This should resolve some confusion for the future.



Cheers,
Lillian
