Probably a bad idea as people like me would have even less incentive to contribute to the stabilization of the frozen branch. Another option that _might_ work slightly better is to branch the releases not from CVS head of some arbitrary day but from 'best CVS within the last few month'. So if many people are happy with 'early August' but not with 'September 20', we could use 'early August' as start for the release...
