Sure we do internally... RHEL so far has had an 18 months cycle and it does work by branching at some point and doing the work we want to do on the community base until it is ready to release. Like you we need more time to integrate changes and stabilize than what the 6month cycle allows, we also have the need to integrate most of it back into the main cycle, and not disrupt it. It requires planning, branching, merging, but it's doable and I think we can support that model from a technical standpoint since we are over the fourth iteration on that model.
