Okay. Now that we're settled, here's the problems:

http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/wordpress-gallery/tags/0.2/wordpress-gallery.php
has version 0.1 in it. Shouldn't that be 0.2?

http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/wordpress-gallery/tags/0.2/readme.txt
has Stable Tag 0.1 in it. Also should be 0.2.

Making a new tag = making a new version. If you didn't make a new
version, then you shouldn't have made a new tag directory.

Your checkin problems are straight username/password issues.
