In the past, ATC has targeted quarterly official releases but we've failed
on many occasions due to "holding the bus" for certain features or slow
release voting. In the 10/26/2021 TC working group, we discussed and agreed
that we need to stick to this schedule regardless of feature readiness.
(remember if you want a certain feature that was merged post-release, you
can always pull from the master branch as we are all in agreement that
master must ALWAYS be releasable).

Here is the schedule that was proposed/agreed:

   - Quarterly minor releases (unless a Major is warranted and will be
   determined on case-by-case basis)
   - Monthly patch releases

Example:

1/1/22: 6.1.0
2/1/22: 6.1.1
3/1/22: 6.1.2
4/1/22: 6.2.0
5/1/22: 6.2.1
6/1/22: 6.2.2
7/1/22: 6.3.0
8/1/22: 6.3.1
9/1/22: 6.3.2
10/1/22: 7.0.0 <-- Apparently something "big" or non backwards compatible
got merged (i.e. API version removal)
11/1/22: 7.0.1
12/1/22: 7.0.2

Thanks,

Jeremy
