I agree with this. Also looking at the previous few feature releases, we always needed a few bugfix releases for regressions introduced by them. If we *also* add new features with every (used-to-be) bugfix release, I fear we won't really have a stable battle-tested pytest at all. I think the right route to go is to make releases easier (I think Bruno is doing a great job on that!), and then maybe switch to time-based releases rather than milestone-based releases like gitlab does? https://about.gitlab.com/2015/12/07/why-we-shift-objectives-and-not-release-dates-at-gitlab/ Florian -- http://www.the-compiler.org | [email protected] (Mail/XMPP) GPG: 916E B0C8 FD55 A072 | http://the-compiler.org/pubkey.asc I love long mails! | http://email.is-not-s.ms/
