What do you think about labeling (or whatever the correct term for
subversion is) the current files in that repository to 0.10.7 (so we can
get back to that version later).

After that we could remove files no longer needed, like the gtk2
directory (as the gtk2.4 dir is used now AFAIK).

So people only have to download the things they needed for the current
version, and we create a history for the future so find back the right
files of previous versions will become a lot easier.

I was thinking we could modify Makefile.nmake and/or win32-setup.sh to
point to a specific file revision in the SVN repository for downloads.
However, it's a lot more straightforward to create a branch in the
repository, as you suggested.

A branch for the current set of libraries has been created in
"tags/2004-11-02" (unlike CVS, SVN makes no distinction between tags and
branches; both are just copies of the trunk).  win32-setup.sh has been
changed to use the new path.

Is there any reason to not use the same tags as the corresponding Ethereal release like 0.10.7?

That would make it much easier to match Ethereal released sources with the corresponding libs IMHO.
