I think an annual release cycle is too long. Linux and related applications change fast and a long release cycle risks to make users unhappy. If the release cycle is made longer, the release of updated applications through an official channel (not additional repositories or OBS) becomes necessary. If not done, we risk to have an obsolete distribution soon. In my opinion, if we want a stable distribution, the use of the build service or of additional repository should be considered an occasional event for the common user, to get only what is not / can't be provided in the distribution.
