I read what you wrote - I just don't believe it. My own experience is that doing more releases is more work. Also, two commitfests per release means that if you can't get your patch up to snuff in two iterations, you're bumped. The diminished pain of being bumped will, I think, be more than balanced out by the increased frequency of bumps. Many patches needed 2 or 3 commitfests to get committed; all of the people who need 3 iterations, and anyone who needs 2 iterations and doesn't submit until the second commitfest of the cycle, will take two releases to get out the door. I don't believe you're ever going to make beta/release so low-impact that that won't be disruptive or irritating to people. ...Robert -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
