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.
This is my greatest fear.
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.
I too am very concerned about this and agree 1000%. I wonder the same
thing. I do not want to complain but I have real concerns.
