I'm very sorry for changing things at the last minute; as with you, I was 
rushing around trying to get things ready.  I looked at the talk window, 
saw 'XORG-6_7' and said 'oh no, it *has* to be 6_7_0'.  Then I looked at 
the BUILD file and it still said 'xo_6_7_0' and I jumped to the 
(incorrect) conclusion that you hadn't looked at the docs and didn't 
realize they contained the release number in many places.

So, by the time I'd retagged the tree (thinking that was all that was 
required to fix things), I then discovered that you *had* used the right 
tag and *had* updated the documentation sources.

Sigh.

I'd like to limit the fix to just updating the tag in the tree, noting 
that the docs in the tarballs are broken and leaving the tar files alone.
Otherwise, we will have to regenerate the doc sources, which is a pain
(you have to be in an ISO-8859-1 locale).

(as a slight aside, I'd really prefer a lower case tag; it's a lot easier 
to type, but I can live with whatever you select).

Mea culpa
