Good evening,

Tonight I am writing to humbly put in a request for you to tag this project.

The reason is that a lot of users want to rely on a "numbered" release, by
the most broad definition of the term. For me, it is really simple, I am setting
up a "kind of stable" Emacs configuration of my system here https://github.com/grettke/home/blob/master/.emacs.el
and I would like to rely 100% just one tag. Whenever a "kind of stable" version
is ready, another tag would be super, too.

You might already have the most stable version in the mainline; and tagging it
would make it crystal clear to new users. Perhaps you have already released such
a version elsewhere, and if so, my apologies, and where does it live?

Stable is not the best word here. It just means that the project lives on GitHub
and that it has a tag. It doesn't mean that the software is perfect, it just
means that it is tagged. That tag gives users a version to settle on and go on
with their life is all.

I've used your package for a long time, love it, and so do many, many others.
This is a way to get that project out to the other thousands and thousands of
users who also rely upon MELPA stable.

All it takes is for you to create a tag, and within hours, it will show up on
MELPA stable.

Can't wait to hear about what you think and whether or not a tag is in this
project's future!

Kind regards,

Grant Rettke
