 Yeah there are many interlocking issues here. I've been thinking about

 about the status quo for now.

 - Frequent releases are a really nice for feature for the community. I know 
 I, for one, would be less motivated to work on GHC if it would take a year in 
 some case for my contributions to trickle back to my day job. Rust releases 
 every 6 *weeks*. I see no reason why we shouldn't aim for that.

In the past we had nightly builds. They are not quite releases but if 
provided as, say, Debian packages it would be easy to install and upgrade 
them.
