I would agree with this, in spirit.  I think that the 2.0 release should be followed 
up with weekly 
releases of bug fixes we make on the 2.0 branch, for at least 3-4 weeks.  Once it's 
settled, I 
don't think actual releases of development stuff is served well by weekly, or even 
monthly 
releases.  If we were 20 developers working all the time, I might say different, but 
we're 2-3 
right now doing active coding, and it seems a bit much to expect there's something 
worth 
releasing every month.

So far, JMeter's been averaging a pretty steady 6-month release schedule for about 3 
years.  

It might be nice to push that to a 3-month interval instead.  That seems workable and 
useful.  
It might be nice to lay it out in a roadmap on the website
