More frequent kexec-tools releases

Hi All,

Just now we were discussing that fedora kexec-tools should rebase to
upstream kexec-tools every release so that we can test the latest code
sooner.

Then Dave Young pulled in some data about the kexec-tools release
duration.

Date:   Tue Mar 19 10:46:46 2013 +0900
    kexec-tools 2.0.4 ~100 commits

Date:   Mon Jan 16 09:15:25 2012 +1100
    kexec-tools 2.0.3 ~100 commits

Date:   Thu Jul 29 13:40:00 2010 +0900
    kexec-tools 2.0.2 ~80 commits

Date:   Thu Aug 13 09:28:08 2009 +1000
    kexec-tools 2.0.1 ~60 commits

Date:   Sat Jul 19 10:31:30 2008 +1000
    kexec-tools 2.0.0

So that is 5 release in 5.5 years. It is roughly 1 release per year.

I am wondering if there is any interest in more frequent releases of
kexec-tools. Say every 3 months or every 6 months.

IMHO, it might be better if there are more frequent release of kexec-tools
(say a release every 6 months) and then every 6 months distributions
should be able to rebase to that new release.

Thoughts?

Thanks
Vivek
