Hi All, one thing strikes me here: "We are looking at a short release cycle due to release delays of 2.9."
Looking as in "yeah, that would be a bad idea"? :) What is the rationale behind making the life of 2.9 shorter? Its birth was difficult hence I would expect extra care before moving to 2.10. The clients I talk to do not usually rush towards new releases so making a release shorter does not help with building more confidence, I am afraid.
