At the moment it seems as if all projects are content with existing solely
in CVS. This is great for developing but as a user I would really like to
download a release of the project instead of having to download the latest
CVS version. I have a feeling that the load on the opencores server could
be easened if we didn't have to use CVS all the time to download releases.
(Even worse, CVS through a webgui in most cases.)
This would ease bug tracking as well since it is easy for the user to
report that she has downloaded version 0.4 of a certain version instead
of a certain CVS release.
Mirroring of opencores would be easier as well since we could mirror the
release files.
At a glance, a lot of projects are marked as "DONE" on the project page. All
of these should easily be able to produce a release file IMO.
