I'm thinking e.g. of N=4 with a 6 month cycle. I think some of our downstreams (i.e. distros) would like this, since it gives them releases which are supported for a length of time more like their own release cycles. And again there will be a rush to get a feature in at the end of each Nth cycle, as it will end up in the long-term stable version... On a completely different tack, one way of looking at this is that there are 2 releases in a given 18 month period with 9 month cycle vs 4 in the 6 Huh? 4 * 6 = 24, not 18!
