I have been thinking about this as well, just from observing how "shit 
hits the fan" near the end of the cycle.

I'd like to throw out a suggestion that perhaps GNOME should alternate 
on a six-month-twelve-month release cycle, regardless of "major release" 
or not. It might make planning a little more complicated, but I'm sure 
it would be appreciated by developers and users alike.
