 * I have two plugins, winex and bookx. Winex is released, via putting the directory
   0.1 in the /tags part of SVN. Firstly, that is correct right?
 * 2) To release 0.2 do I just create another directory in /tags named 0.2?
 * Another oddity is that bookx released, but shouldnt have. There isnt anything
   in /tags
    [http://svn.wp-plugins.org/bookx/tags/](http://svn.wp-plugins.org/bookx/tags/)
 * only in trunk, but for some reason it created the zip file and released it. How
   can I fix that?
 * Thanks!

 * Your “stable tag” in the readme file dictates where the “official” release comes
   from. I think the system will use that to point to the tag _if it’s available_,
   but it seems that it decides that “trunk” is the official release if the given
   tag does not exist.
 * So if you use anything other than “trunk”, if that tag doesn’t exist, it defaults
   back to “trunk”. (Just guessing, only the folks who wrote the scripts would know
   for sure).
 * I’m betting the “trunk/readme.txt” dictates which tag directory is used for the
   ZIP file. But hopefully someone who knows more will clarify if this is not correct.

 * No, I have been playing with it for a while, and I think you have it.
 * Basically, because in the readme, I had a stable version (I had just copied and
   pasted) it caused it to look for it, but since it didnt find it, it just used
   what was in trunk.
 * Man for the life of me I couldnt see how this happened, but I think you are exactly
   right.
 * Thank you!
