<![CDATA[Release Frequency]]>Officially, Tribblix follows the "when I feel like it" release model. I make a release (as in a new version that requires a full upgrade) when I feel it's about time for one, rather than calendar-based or feature-based.

This tends to mean that releases come every few months - with the range being 2-6 months.

Should releases be on a more consistent timetable?

Should releases be more frequent?

Or should I just bumble along with the current model?

Although partly it's because I'm a lazy user, I really can't be fussed to deal with systems that make my life difficult.

I'm a big fan of keeping stress as minimal as possible. That said, everyone has a different feel for what is stressful. I'm a big fan of bumbling along myself.

This, with the peace of mind of having boot environments, actually made me say to myself that I should consider using Tribblix more. So whatever the frequency is, thank you for making it so easy.
