Hello,

I am trying to create a branch based on a release tag.  The branch would be
used for maintenance purposes. (I am using an svn scm provider with the
standard layout)

The release plugin doco doesn't indicate where I should be running the
release:branch goal from...

If I run it from the trunk, it creates a branch from the current development
version, regardless of whether I give it -Dtag=<myrelease_version>.

If I run it from a tag folder, it complains that I don't have a SNAPSHOT
project in the reactor projects list.  

It makes sense to me that I should be able to do a release from a release
tag folder, or from the trunk, (by providing a value for -Dtag=...).

I ahve experiemented with -DupdateBranchVersions=true
-DupdateWorkingCopyVersions=false, but the situation is no better.

Does anyone have any thoughts on what I am doing wrong?

This is actually just a simplistic test project with one artifact at this
point before I try to apply this to my multi-module, JEE project.

Thanks,

Shea.
