No.  I plan to only bump version numbers when things have actually  
changed from now on.

This method would only be used if the version of Asterisk currently  
being installed was checked out of svn.  I think it is safe to assume  
that anyone installing an svn checkout has an internet connection  
available.

When talking to Kevin last night on IRC, we modified the plan a  
little bit.  When using a svn checkout, instead of downloading the  
tarball, we can just download the appropriate tag using svn.

We would also like to do a little bit of a reorganization of the  
asterisk-sounds repository:

	asterisk-sounds/base/
The base sounds that are currently in the Asterisk repository

	asterisk-sounds/extras/
These are the sounds currently in asterisk-sounds/.

	asterisk-sounds/other/
We could then easily add other directories as appropriate.

I prefer to keep the base sounds in the Asterisk tarball for the sake  
of simplicity.
