Here's a video of an ex-debian maintainer (Martin Michlmayr, never heard of him) giving Google a talk about the advantages of time based release management.
ABSTRACT: Time based releases are made according to a specific time interval, instead of making release when particular functionality or set of features have been implemented. This talk will argue that time based release management acts as an effective coordination mechanism in large volunteer projects and will show examples from seven projects that have moved to time based releases: Debian, GCC, GNOME, Linux, OpenOffice, Plone, and X.org. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5503858974016723264 Yes, I think uClibc should do this, in case it wasn't clear. Your designated release pesterer, (how goes the merge of nptl into the main tree, by the way?)
