This is something I have been thinking about for awhile, and discussed with a

I think that for the 'stable' branch, we should move to time based releases.
Sounds sane. Even though there might only be small bugfixes it's a
good thing to release rather often to reduce the risk of having so
many new fixes and features that we trigger some weird bug in each
release that makes it unusable.
I suspect that this should really affect APR too since we have
examples of bugs that's fixed in APR trunk (or newer releases), an
example would be that for httpd 2.2.8 the included APR is broken wrt
bucket brigades and LFS on 32bit platforms...
My proposal is for every 2 months, we do a release of the main stable branch,
which at this time is 2.2.x.
+1, including the concerns that 3 months might be a more suitable goal
for releases (meaning that tagging 2 months after the last release
seems reasonable :) and that we should not write this in stone but
be flexible when needed.

I'd love to, but I'm too young for that stuff.
