Of course, if we are that good :-)

It was more meant to get an idea how it could work - but I also assumed
approx. 6 months between the releases. To be honest, I didn't want to
talk about a time based roadmap (within this idea) without knowing some
dates for the currently planned LibO 3.3 ;-)

However, it seems there is some agreement - and I am very happy about
that. I'm very much looking forward what we can achieve :-)

Any other thoughts?

Cheers,
Christoph
