I think there are couple of different ideas here at play
1) Time to release
2) Quality of the release
IMO, the issue that effects most people is the quality of the release. So when
someone says that we should slow down the release cycles, I think what they
mean is that we should spend more tim

version you're running and trunk increases.
For those actively doing development, such divergence actually causes
extra work and slows down development.
