I can't help noticing a bit of a problem. With a very aggressive
release-schedule such as "every 2 weeks", chances of genuine bugs being
1) reported,
2) diagnosed and
3) fixed
in that timeframe are very minimal.
When I say "genuine" I discount typos, apparmor bureacrazy, and other
minors that can be dealt with by level 1 support.
I've got a couple of open reports (159731, 136742, 159727, 153585), and
whilst an aggressive release-schedule is probably a Good Thing(R), it
puts a lot of unnecessary strain on testers. For bugs/problems that
aren't positively fixed before the next release, it's usually "please
install <next release> and see if problem has gone away".
Perhaps I'm just whining or venting some steam, but the aggressive
release-schedule isn't doing me much good.
