That my impression, too. But the back-an-forth with FC4, FC5 and FC6
seems to have confused a lot of people afaics -- we IMHO should try to
avoid that in the future. That's why I'd prefer if we could have a long
term planing with a fixed six month release interval. E.g. always
release one week after each Gnome-Release (that would be sencond half or
march and september). If there are reasons that force a slip then delay
the release of "n" by one, two or three weeks (or even more), but that
should not effect the schedule of release "n+1".

Just my 2 cent.
