IMO if there are lots of bugs waiting on few votes or commits, I'm sure it would be much more beneficial to check them in first. And it's not like you are going to get massive participation just by announcing some "release dates". Personally I just happened to have some inspiration and time right now. Anyways it sounds good just releasing from trunk regularly, I think we're never going to get a steady stream of "stable" releases with current developer/pmc resources.
