Right, I agree - in theory - one could release even daily, if one had the automation in place (build, package, test, etc.) to support such a desire.
However, from a practical standpoint, I don't think end users would appreciate that approach much. I think a four-month schedule is fine - if we can hold to it with good quality. Overlapping releases is a bit problematic in that it encourages developers to focus on the future release (such as this week) versus the past one that's not yet out.
