I think so, too. Remember that only a handful of people are actually working 
on the stable series (far less than the -- anyway less -- developers). This 
will be the same with 1.5.x, notwithstanding how excited everybody is about 
it currently.

IMO a good prove that the current strategy works is the actual series. 1.4.0 
was released with lots of bugs and flaws. Now look at 1.4.4svn: It's still 
not perfect, but it stabilized significantly (with any minor release). I 
think this is a result of Jean-Marc's conservative door-keeping and his very 
careful reviewing of every single patch.
