You could consider an eight-month cycle with a bit of leeway. Like delaying one month if that means catching a nice enough release of something upstream. Or if the holidays get in the way, as you just did for 11.2.
Not September. Good! Thanks.
I'm curious about the version names. Neither against or pro, just curious: why "names" at all, why these names in particular... :-)
Surely someone wrote/bloged about this, I hope.
Strict... :-? IMO, bugs, sometimes important, are only found during the RC phase. It's a fact. Some people only test at that point. A little flexibility might be handy to polish those bugs. 11.1 got a lot of them: some were solved just very recently.
Wow.
Nice! :-)
Please, consider adding a setting in YaST for machines on battery with all kind of optimizations: cpu freq, cron stop, disk sync delay, package selection, cpu intensive eye candy, etc, etc.

To give us something to plan around, we would like to propose a fixed release
schedule. As a six-month release schedule is not something we consider
feasible to maintain high-quality standards, we are proposing a fixed eight-
month schedule.

November 2009: "Fichte" 11.2
Not September. Good! Thanks.
July 2010: "Rousseau" 11.3
March 2011: "Voltaire" 12.0
November 2011: "Lessing" 12.1

Public releases would happen on the Thursday before the 15th of the month, and
the gold master (GM) would be finalized one week prior to that. We are
planning a strict four-week release candidate (RC) phase.

The features we have in mind for 11.2 center around these top features:...
* Ext4 - possibly even as the default filesystem.
Wow.
* Provide YaST Web interface for easier remote adminstration.
Nice! :-)
* Netbook support
