Just a wild thought...

Maybe we can have monthly release and still keep it stable. Imagine this
kind of release schedule:

Month #  11          12          1           2           3

          2.064       2.065       2.066       2.067       2.068
          2.065rc2    2.066rc2    2.067rc2    2.068rc2    2.069rc2
          2.066rc1    2.067rc1    2.068rc1    2.069rc1    2.070rc1
          2.067b2     2.068b2     2.069b2     2.070b2     2.071b2
          2.068b1     2.069b1     2.070b1     2.071b1     2.072b1
          2.069alpha  2.070alpha  2.071alpha  2.072alpha  2.073alpha

Where new features are only added to alpha release. And bug fixes are
added to all releases.

This way new bug fixes and new features would be released every month
but there would be a 5 month delay between the time that feature A is
added to the alpha release and the time feature A is propagated to the
stable release. But during this period feature A would be propagated
through releases and there would be plenty of opportunity to test it and
clear it of bugs. I am not a fan of such delay but I don't see any other
way new features could be added without higher risk of bugs.

Also vote up for daily snapshots.

Are you saying we should have six releases going on at the same time?
