Yes, +1 for 11.0, 12.0, 13.0 for me, for the same reasons.  And just
referring to it as NetBeans 11, NetBeans 12, etc. on website, splash,
etc.  I really don't understand the argument this caused with NetBeans
10 here if .1, .2, etc. are only intended to be patch releases?  And
that's the question I don't think we've really answered yet - if we're
moving to time-based releases are all releases treated equal?  Are all
point releases just bug fixes *on the release branch*?

-0 on date releases - not against it, but have a few questions if that
went ahead.  Can all our infrastructure manage that well?  eg. do we
use that in publishing platform artefacts to Maven, or do we end up
using multiple version schemes?  What happens when like NB 10 we need
to delay a release for a blocker - do we end up having to rename
2018-10-rc to 2018-12?  Is there any significance to a change from
2019.x to 2020.x?  Does it change how we integrate NetCAT?

I can't decide whether this thread is cosmetic bike-shedding or quite
fundamental at the moment! ;-)

Best wishes,

Neil
