Sure. But some people are trying to introduce another subvariant: The conference-circuit-based releases. ;-) It sounds attractive, but it shouldn't trump all other concerns. Consider this instead: Nothing to do during beta? Write your conference slides! ;-) I suggest going with four commit fests. Three is too short. We already started the first one early, which didn't give those involved in the release any time to prepare some patches for it. So with three fests you'd only give the major developers 8 weeks to code something for a yearly release. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
