Hi all, first off, sorry for the late bad habit of cross positing to the two communities :-p
We already discussed the idea of using a time boxed model for relases in the two communities some time ago with general positive feedback. I've prepared a formal proposal for it here: http://geoserver.org/display/GEOS/GSIP+77+-+Time+boxed+release+model The proposal is hosted on the GeoServer wiki and uses the GeoServer GSIP format, but it's really meant to be discussed and voted by the two communities togheter. Since we're talking about releases (which are often synchronized) and code stability, it cannot be any other way (well, unless GeoServer stops using geotools snapshots, but that would have ugly consequences for both communities). There are cerntainly points that need more discussion, I especially invite you to have a look at the commit guidelines, of what can be done where, and to improve the GSIP until it satisfied everyone's need.
