Comment:

 This can be done fairly easily as a post-commit hook:

  - If the tags/ directory is updated, we need to update the source.
  - Find the name of the tarball we need to make, from the name of the
 modified tag directory.
  - Get the tarball with a simple 'svn export
 http://svn.cc.gatech.edu/fastlab/tags/$RELEASE'.
  - Push the tarball to www.mlpack.org/files/ (we can set up SSH keys to do
 this automagically)

 If you can write the script to get steps 1 through 3 done, I'll get the
 commit hook in place and get the SSH keys set up.  I'm also retargeting
 this because it's not blocking the 1.0.0 release, which already
 happened...
