Sure. But some people are trying to introduce another subvariant: The
conference-circuit-based releases. ;-) It sounds attractive, but it
shouldn't trump all other concerns. Consider this instead: Nothing to
do during beta? Write your conference slides! ;-)
I suggest going with four commit fests. Three is too short. We already
started the first one early, which didn't give those involved in the
release any time to prepare some patches for it. So with three fests
you'd only give the major developers 8 weeks to code something for a
yearly release.
