Description

How should we release different contrib projects?

nginx now (#10) builds release binaries for different platforms and I'd like expose these artifacts via Github releases.
Should each project have it's own version tag? E.g. nginx-0.1.0 and httpd-0.1.0 so when the tag is created a GH release will be available.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the nginx release-binary setup referenced in issue #10 and how the contrib projects are currently tagged. Define and document a per-project versioning and GitHub Releases approach, including how platform artifacts are exposed. Done means the convention is agreed and its release workflow is specified for the different contrib projects.
