Cool discussion :) Here is my thought: If there is no big reason to jump to the next higher number (in this case 3->4) in some period, do it at least every so-much years. That is reason enough.. But please do not jump from 3 to 14 !

We have libraries that are still on 3.6.x now and we will probably update them directly to 3.12 sometime this year. The positive side on half year feature releases is that you can get to use your sponsored enhancements quicker if you want to. Libraries don't have to wait a full year worst case or even longer, if for whatever reason their developments can't go into the very next release. As it stands Koha changes a lot in short amounts of time. Our release notes show that quite well and I think we should keep our cycle. Translations are always a bit of a pain to do, that won't change with different tools or different kinds of releases in my opinion. But the bugfix releases don't introduce a lot of new strings. It's the big releases that do and I think we wouldn't reduce work with longer release cycles.
