Your thoughts and concerns please.
Please do not mix together bugs fix releases with enhancement/new addition releases, those represent two different types of release that serve two entirely different purposes.
Bug fixes should be as frequent as possible. To understand why, just try and find a good reason to artificially hold back a bug fix.
As for feature enhancements and new additions to the language, delays tend to be a good thing, allowing time for fine tuning reflection and beta testing - but please take note that the current process lacks a public beta release cycle, and we can see the results each time there's been a new release, with weird version number mix ups, and embarrassing bugs that would have been detected had there been a real public beta release posted on the main download page.
