Description Michael Ochmann CLA 2011-06-28 06:52:36 EDT
The idea of tagging is: everybody should do it, not only committers. However, currently tags are a property of Project, so each time someone changes a tag, it looks like a non-committer saves the Project, which is kind of weird.
There is already a o.e.s.api.java.TaggingService which could be enhanced to become an EntityService handling a new entity type "Tags" (similiar to "Issues"), and the "tags" could be removed then.
