All,

on the hackathon we discussed this topic. With the rate of changes
going into the stable trees not being as high anymore as a few
years ago, we settled on trying to stick to a 4 month release
cycle going forward. Of course, issues like the currently severely
lagging osstest can always lead to delays, and we're not intending
to release not properly tested code just because the schedule
says so. But the intention is to at least initiate the process of
preparing stable releases mainly based on time, i.e. in particular
not taking into account the (possibly small) set of accumulated
changes.

If anyone is heavily objecting to this, or foresees other kinds of
problems with this scheme - please speak up soon!

Regards, Jan
