Well, the company I work for has decided to limit ourselves to 2
new releases per year as opposed to 4 - we make a database
product and our customers were finding that it simply took too
long to upgrade. We're spending the additional time insuring
that our releases are as clean, elegant, and bug-free as we can
make them.
