Re: News outdated and repo needs 3.3.0 tag commit fix

Hi Brian,

Thanks for pointing this out.  I'll fix the 4.2.0 and 4.3.0 announcements.

Regarding 3.3.0, the tag gets created in the same script I create the
snapshot so the tag should always match the snapshot.  There were
mitigating circumstances as to why the message wasn't posted, but I'll try
and not let it happen again.
