If you want to update GWT every 6 month then just use any HEAD-SNAPSHOT 
build from a specific day and stay on it for 6 months. GWT does not upload 
HEAD-SNAPSHOT builds with failed tests so HEAD-SNAPSHOT builds are usually 
not less stable than a named version release.

At work we stopped using named version releases long time ago and never had 
any issues. Actually we only had benefits from doing so because you get 
bugfixes a lot faster. Actually I am a strong believer that it would be the 
best for GWT to just do automated named version releases every quarter. 
Basically giving a HEAD-SNAPSHOT build a specific version for people who 
don't like SNAPSHOT dependencies or don't want to execute the GWT build 
themselves.

That being said, for now I think there is no specific time frame planed for 
a 2.8.3 release. But given there are no meeting minutes from the steering 
group since May 2017, I could be wrong.
