Hey

I think this would be a very nice feature :)

> 2. Special cron job will fetch new tag, build source package and put
> it into autobuilder incoming directory.
> 3. Autobuilder will build it the same way as it does currently.

> How does it look? Any ideas/suggestions?

> PS: If this feature will be usable I can add processing of git tags as well.
