A long release cycle, but a short beta (and a lot of people don't download
until beta). Of course I agree that 3.3 is a great improvement on 3.2 (even
as far back as M2 when I first started using it). Granted, all of the bugs
that I know of in B2 have been fixed, but I've only had it up for about a
week to bang on it. Mostly it's just my frustration that I'd like to be
involved (at least with testing), but as a part-timer on tomcat-dev I
probably won't be able to with the proposed release calendar.
