What are tags for? Should we have them at all?
hsgnutls-0.2.3-barracuda hsgnutls-0.2.3.1-barracuda regex-tdfa-0.92-ghc-68-build-fix
I'm guessing that the tag generally indicates a specific set of bugfixes over the original version? And thus does not indicate API changes? So what does the Package Versioning Policy have to say about bugfix-only releases? And whilst we are raising the question of changing the behaviour of comparisons on Data.Version.Version, I would like to repeat the argument I made a few months back, that version X.Y should compare equal to X.Y.0.0.0 (for any sequence of trailing zeroes).
