best practice to release module to forge

I just released my second module for CMS Made Simple. I'm familiar with GIT and saw the option of version control via GIT (is this new?)

So i registered my module and a couple of minutes later i received an email that my project is accepted.

After that i pushed my local code to the git repository in cmsms (not github).

The first (beta) version of my module is complete so i wanted to release that. I fought my way trough the forge admin (sorry guys, its not that easy..) and got to a point where i could upload my files. I created a 'Beta' file Package and added a new release.

In here i placed my in cmsms created module XML and a zip file.

As of now you can download the module (http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/projects/storelocator) but on the right under 'Project summary' i don't see a last release date or last commit date.

And also, there is no version attached to the downloads.. only in the filename. But i couldn't find a place where to put this?

So there is something that i did wrong.. what i don't now.

That data will be updated only once a day.

Where you have put the words "Initial Release" you could have put the version number of your release.
