But our release dictator doesn't impose but tests out democracy ;-).

I think we can do faster as I proposed in the initial post, but fine
with me.
Sorry, I didn't see it. And my schedule above is of course one month
off. I really meant this:
alpha2: today :-)
beta1: 01/05/2008
beta2: 15/05/2008
RC1 or beta3: 01/06/2008
RC2 or beta4: 15/06/2008
1.6.0 or RC3: 01/07/2008
So I think we can even do faster ;-)

Exactly that's the problem. Only with a fixed schedule we will be able
to release LyX 1.6 the next months. A fixed schedule has the advantage
that hard decisions could be made, for example to drop a feature that
cannot be made stable enough for a release within the scheduled time.
In principle we are feature complete and there is life after LyX 1.6.0
for new features.
Agreed.
