I'm not disputing that, and never have.

It works exactly as it always has. No, I haven't got round to
automating the pushes yet, largely because I've had 1001 other things
to do, the vast majority of which will benefit far more users and
community members in one way or another. I wasn't aware that you
considered this to be such a high priority item compared to all the
other tasks I have on my plate.

Yes, we tag them. I just forgot that GIT pulls tags automatically, but
doesn't push them. I've corrected that now.

Maybe, but that's a different discussion. By your own admission you've
been well aware that we made the installers available under an OSS
licence in this way for a long time which implies consent, casual
discussion about improving the push frequency aside - as is the norm
in community matters. You certainly haven't nudged me about this, or
made me aware (until now) that you consider it to be a high priority.

Sure, I'll bump it up the list and try to do it today. What do you
consider more important, this or the CFP?
