It's clear we should drop the check on the tags from the == test but I'm not sure if we should also change the showVersion or parseVersion functions.
I'm planning on changing the equivalent of showVersion in Cabal to not display the tags.
What are tags for? Should we have them at all? Currently they've been used in: hsgnutls-0.2.3-barracuda hsgnutls-0.2.3.1-barracuda regex-tdfa-0.92-ghc-68-build-fix which seem to be non-maintainer releases. You'd want such versions to be distinguished from the untagged versions.
