 Hey Ross,
 
 Of course. You can unscheduled releases whenever you think one's needed,
 for exactly that reason: we don't want users to go four months without
 bugfixes! Just be reasonable about the frequency of releases; if you
 find yourself at 3.x.7 and you're not GTK+ or Evolution then you're
 probably releasing too frequently. It's normal for GNOME programs to go
 up to 3.x.3, 3.x.4, and sometimes even 3.x.5.
 

That makes sense, thanks for the answer.

Cheers,

Stable release policy

2014-08-22 Thread Ross Lagerwall
Hi,

Is there any policy about releasing updates to stable branches beyond
the .1 release or is it simply up to each project?  I couldn't find this
info anywhere on the wiki...

Thanks,

A stable .2 is listed on
https://wiki.gnome.org/ThreePointThirteen#Schedule
Core projects are expected to follow the release schedule.
See also https://wiki.gnome.org/MaintainersCorner
