That's the point really, the crazy thing is that I have done that for libvirt for years, so I know it's better, the problem of feeling "there is too much to be pushed before I can make a release" goes away. If 6 month from now we realize that the cycle is too fast - that can be a problem too - then we can slow down, but let's do monthly for now, thanks for the encouragements, Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | Red Hat Developers Tools http://developer.redhat.com/ veill...@redhat.com | libxml Gnome XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ http://veillard.com/ | virtualization library http://libvirt.org/ ___ xml mailing list, project page http://xmlsoft.org/ xml@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/xml

Thank you Daniel and Nick, and congrats to this release! I hope that the new release process will make it easier for you to get things out.
