Wow, so having Maven releases is why we take 6-10 months to release?  Give me a 
break.  The only thing that is slower (arguably) is the building of the release 
itself.   We have had Maven support for a long time and it has never been 
brought up until you did that it was the cause.  The cause is, was and always 
will be that we innovate at a pretty rapid pace and always have the mindset to 
get "just one more" set of features/fixes into the next release.
