I think that you are conflating the "help with the release" with the need for applications to be part of the bundle. My dream is an automated server-side tarball generation, in a way that developers can simply ask to release from a specific tag and don't care about uploading the file to the right place on the incoming ftp/ssh server. But that service could exist independently from the bundle. -- Luigi
