A release adds pressure to make the code actually work, and having the code out in the wild gives useful feedback to people who are doing the work in the first place. A long release cycle decouples writing code from seeing anyone use it, which seriously deflates the incentive to do any work in the first place. I already work on a busy open source project that has quarterly releases, and it works just fine, up to and including large modifications. I'd much rather have a release > schedule that's predictably in sync with GHC releases, Quarterly releases can easily be synced to GHC releases. The two are not in conflict.
