Linux kernel uses "merge windows" to address both aspects of the
problem. Same with FreeBSD (check Vick Khera's note in this thread).
The idea is to make a release, then merge all the outstanding work
("merge window"), then freeze the codebase and stabilise it. Once it's
stabilised, make new release and start the cycle anew.
