There's two sides to this, though. From an ISV perspective, there's something as "release too often". I've heard fom many distros that they're not too happy about Samba doing a minor version bump twice a year these days. Of course I guess a Wine stable release once a year is reasonable, assuming we try really hard to not regress between stable releases. That depends on being able to test a lot of applications, though.
