KDE release cycles?

[dE .]

Is there any definitive release cycle? Like Debian has 
stable/unstable/testing etc... branches and has general rules and 
regulation on what has to be done at what time, regardless of the 
current release?

Or is it that the rules and regulations change as per the release?
