Hi, Slowly catching up on emails having been busy with some consultancy work the last month ... this still bothers me and feels like a fudge that needs addressing ...

The original time-based release proposal thread, from where the fixed cycle / 3-months came from, was based on having fixed-in-advance dates from freeze to release, keeping master releaseable, Jan (I think?) suggested fixed merge windows and keeping cherry-picking minimal, etc. It was about releasing quickly whatever was ready in master at a point in time. Having a tick-tock release cycle, or publicising features in advance before they're releaseable in master, seems to be very distinctly different from doing that? If we're saying that NB12 will contain X, and X is not ready in time, what actually would happen - delay NB12 or ship major feature X in NB12.1?!
