There is always a rush at the Feature Freeze point in a cycle to get things in, 
or they will be delayed for 6 months. With the year-long cycle, now anything 
missing Feature Freeze will be delayed by a year. The long cycle also means 
that a lot more time will be spent backporting things to the current release, 
since people won’t be able to wait a whole year for some improvements.

Maybe it’s just the dev in me, but I prefer shorter cycles (CD, anyone?).
