The best thing to do would be to create an additional repo file for your
repository (see README-repos) or just replace 'SBo' with your tag in the
local.repo file. You could even just run

TAG=your_tag sbopkg

if it would work well enough for you.

If none of those work for you, let me know.

BTW, could you please subscribe to the list? I have to individually
approve people when they send mail as non-subscribers.
