Hmm both would possible. We could either always increment the plugin
version when we increment the opensync version so its clear which plugin
version should work. (But i think this is a lot of overhead since the
plugins rarely change once written)

The other possibility would be to make each tag a directory like this:

version-0.X/opensync
version-0.X/plugin1 etc

I think the neccessity for this disappears once we declare the plugin
interface stable since then the latest plugin HEAD version should always
work correctly
