Why?

From my POV the only valid reason for someone to want a new Gentoo
release is if (s)he wants to install it on a new hardware, which is not
supported by the latest release.

On the other hand I've installed Gentoo from its own CD only once. In
all other cases (including my first install) I've done the installation
in chroot from another, already installed, GNU/Linux distro [1] or from
any bootable GNU/Linux CD [1] which supports the hard disk controllers,
console and the network device. Yet another reason to love Gentoo! ;-)

In other words I don't need too many releases, but prefer the devs
spend their time for Gentoo on killing :) bugs and filling portage with
new software instead of taking snapshots and building CD/DVD images.
