yep +1 to this. The LTS release solves my previous concern

Re: Proposals for releases - 4.0 and beyond

I really like Stefan's Ubuntu model (because of the LTS release), with Sylvain's suggestion a close second. Both because I think we should do a supported, non-dev release every 6 months, and release bug fixes for them for a at least a year. On November 19, 2016 at 10:30:02 AM, Stefan

Re: Proposals for releases - 4.0 and beyond

I think the monthly releases are important, otherwise releases become an “event”. The monthly releases mean they are just a normal thing that happens. So I like any of 3/4/5. Sylvain's proposal sounds interesting to me. My only concern would be with making sure we label things very clearly

Proposals for releases - 4.0 and beyond

With 3.10 voting in progress (take 3), 3.11 in December/January (probably?), we should solidify the plan for 4.0. I went through the archives and found a number of proposals. We (PMC) also had a very brief chat in private to make sure we hadn’t missed any, and here are the proposals that we’ve
