I agree that users prefer stable versions over unstable and frequent ones. And I can tell that because of being a dolibarr.es forum moderator, where users complaint about finding a major version being released, updating and not finding their bug fixed. (And sometimes more bugs appear).
I encourage board members of the association to discuss the current planning in the next meeting.
