May you please create a tag for release? #16

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

@TeMPOraL can you please look into this? It's preventing me from switching to MELPA Stable and will take you about 30 seconds.

@grettke sorry it took so long :(.

@strugee thanks for a reminder :).

Done.
