Wishful thinking, I think...  They're very different beasts.  I don't 
think _I'm_ qualified to be a release coordinator for Mj2; there's 
too much nitty-gritty know-how required about how to turn it into a 
.rpm, .deb, and so forth, which I don't have.

Mj1 has always simply been distributed as a tarball, and that's fine; 
we shouldn't be looking to break new ground (and attract new users, 
<shudder>) by doing anything different than that with Mj1.
