I have the impression that you're talking about something completely
different.
I'm took as an example that David added a new feature on March 23rd
(tuesday) and Curtis did the release 3 days later on friday. How should
anyone with a full-time job get the chance to explore and test a new
feature in a sufficient manner.

Please don't misunderstand me: I don't request _anyone_ to make a
compromise in order to deal with the way _I_ can afford giving spare
time to the FlightGear project. I just ask you (or whom it may belong
to) to acknowledge that such a tight release process makes it
_extremely_ difficult for part-time contributors (like me) to follow
the track,

Martin.
