What's happening right now is OBSD-misc is doing in 6 months
what RH and MS do in ten years. Questions like this are
like hitting the stop button on a production line :D
Peter N.M. Hansteen is keen to answer questions like this.

There's a regular
Distros like RHEL have longer release cycles because the industry they service
demands them. The fact that the kernel project maintains releases as far back
as 2012 only re-enforces the business.
There's no need for 'puffangelism' on this subject as OBSD is by no means alone
in six-month releas

Yep. And Centos7 will be around until 2024. So 4/5 of Linux distros in
production (e.g. Alpine is different in this regard)

To answer your original question: yes, 6.3 is almost here. We've been
running this schedule of twice a year releases for *decades*, so you as a
fan of stable OpenBSD releases should be familiar with the time frames by
now, no?

Your specification and requirements are so clear.
But this isn't a pony shop.
Who cares what you want? Really, noone.

I just don't want OpenBSD to turn into Linux where the fixation is on
newest shiny thing rather than doing code right. Sometimes I think
people who are excessively interested in bleeding edge features more
want an OS for tinkering with than an OS for production / work. I want
something stable to us
