I don't like using tags in externals. Each time an external is changed to a tag, svn creates .OLD directories and gets a new version. It's a real hassle IMO.
I _like_ tags in externals because they are self-documenting. Dealing with externals where you have several different revision numbers is a PIA since you never know what version of a module is behind the revision. You always have look through the log for the referenced module...that's very time consuming. I see this as a major risk factor when working on releases. -aj
