Yes. I think that would be acceptable, but what about a compromise?
Let's say, release kdelibs+kdebase-runtime every 6 months, and the
rest of the modules every 6 months too, with an initial offset of 3
months. This makes life much easier for application developers, since
they can develop against a stable library base. And it helps keeping
binary compatibility working, too, since the libs developers would
test against stable applications.
