The thing I considered "clumsy" was my suggestion of the tag-name, i.e.,
fixed-in-svn_michael_bugfixes_310999 - and most probably you are right, this
would cause an overload; I don't know, if spaces are permitted in those tags?
What about a tag as simple as svn_michael? This would help

- all developers, because we know, someone is working on it
- Thomas, because he knows where to look/whom to contact for the proper fix.

We might add some info on the status, i.e. "working", "fixed" or just leave that
in the control-message of the tag-request, some separate message or this list.

If there are no objections to this proposal, I'd start out and try to tag
310999...

Best regards,
Michael
