I'm not suggesting we lay out a strict timeline, as I'd much prefer

FreeBSD x.y release is coming soon, we're currently working on

Something more than what's here then?

Yes. Especially for people who aren't savvy to the mailing lists,
that page contains virtually NO useful information. TBA is only
useful if, at some point, it actually is announced. In addition,
please point out to me if I'm wrong, there's no easy/readily-
identifiable way to get to that page. RELENG isn't what I'd consider
a user-friendly word.
Really, I think my little rant here is more of a customer-service and
marketing issue. So many people get upset when someone posts the
"when's the next release" question, but there's really no end-user
digestible information anywhere for those individuals to help
themselves.
Again, just my $.02.
