In my personal opinion, a decent stabilisation release could be
achieved by everyone submitting just bug fixes.
Yep. The problem is that this involves telling everyone what to do.
Not really. You tell people what a release will consist of. It is to
them whether or not they want to submit bugs or enhancements for
review. They will just be aware that the enhancements will have to
wait for a release.
There should be very little for them to rebase their enhancements
either, as the changes made to Sage will not be as large as normal.
Okay, then you tell people that their hard work will not be packaged
in the next iteration. Maybe that's life, but it will certainly
discourage me from contributing when I'm told in advance that my
changes will not be incorporated in the usual manner.
