I will start a separate discussion on 4 month cycle or longer, but wanted to call out one more important date.
We have a last day for feature proposal date which is typically a month before feature freeze date. If following 4.3 schedule + 4 month it would have been 2/14 and we are already past that. Since it was not announced for 4.4 release yet my suggestion would be to keep feature proposal open for another week and push all the dates out by 2 weeks to give folks opportunity to finish up their features for new proposals that are yet to come out. To be clear that would mean pushing out feature freeze to 3/28 from 3/14 and all the other dates likewise.
