In particular, please let us know how consuming that version (which was only made available every n months) is significantly better than picking your preferred time and get all the current stable branch HEADs at that time. If vendor packages are used (as many folks do) they will need to weigh in before operators can really give valid feedback. I've already heard from one vendor that they will continue to do "point-like" releases that they will support, but we probably need a more complete answer. Another issue, operators pulling from stable will just need to do a bit more diligence themselves (and this is probably appropriate.) One thing we will do in this diligence is something of tracking rate of new bugs and looking for windows of opportunity where there may be semi-quiescence.
This, IMO, is about the only time right now that I see doing point releases on stable as worthwhile. In other words, things have been very touchy in stable for at least the last 6 months, so in the rare moments of stability with the gate on stable is when I'd cut a release before the next gate breaker. You can get some examples of why here:

The other issue I'm aware of is that there will essentially be no "syncing" across projects (except by the vendors). Operators using upstream will need to do a better job (ie, more burden) in making sure all of the packages work together.) __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
