Since we took one month for various things ( such as discussing

the next release to be on 4th april, and start the cycle today. This

Wasn't there a request some time ago to consider releasing just before
the end of a month
so people with monthly limits could choose to use up their current
month's limit, or wait,
depending on how close they were to the limit?
I don't recall seeing such a discussion... but I think we are now
drifting too far off... I think the number of persons for which this is
an issue is really limited and any date that we pick will be somewhat
arbitrarily.

I believe that monthly download quotas are quite common in some
countries, although the "month" to which the quota applies is not always
a calendar month. My quota, for example, is re-set on my billing date,
which is not the first day of the month.
I have no idea how many people have quotas that renew on the first of
the month.
