Could you release a normal version based on Git tags for a wider audience to download and use?

First of all, thanks a lot for your excellent work on GECToR. I am an algorithm engineer from a technology company. Part of my project involves grammatical error correction. It would be appreciated if you could release a normal version based on Git tags for more follower to cite, download and use. Looking forward to your reply.

Hi @chengzhijin Could you please specify your idea in more detail? What tags do you suggest adding?

[chengzhijin]

Thanks for your reply. Adding tags means publicizing your release for production-ready with a normal version, e.g., v1.0.0 This can be done in just a few steps：

1. On GitHub.com, navigate to the main page of the repository.
2. To the right of the list of files, click Releases.
3. Click Draft a new release.
4. Click Choose a tag, type a version number for your release, and press Enter. Alternatively, select an existing tag.
5. If you are creating a new tag, click Create new tag.
6. If you have created a new tag, use the drop-down menu to select the branch that contains the project you want to release. ...
7. Type a title and description for your release. If you @mention any GitHub users in the description, the published release will include a Contributors section with an avatar list of all the mentioned users. Alternatively, you can automatically generate your release notes by clicking Generate release notes. ...
8. If you're ready to publicize your release, click Publish release. To work on the release later, click Save draft.

Also, adding tags could help manage the versions of your release or pre-release. @skurzhanskyi , could you please consider going for a release version? Thanks.

Thank you, @chengzhijin! We'll discuss it with a team

As it's a research repository and we do not have plans to add huge updates, we decided not to add tags.
