Longer for large patches or if we slip from the ideal schedule? That sounds like there are still some opportunities for improvements in project management, but it's not *so* bad if development for the next release can overlap the tail end of that schedule. I'm not sure how much that is anticipated or encouraged, though. It also seems to call into question the wisdom of annual releases. If we had a two-year cycle which had three times as much in it, would that be an improvement, or not? -Kevin
