Just for clarification: Nothing here is set in stone, it's based on my 
quick LO Calc sheet and the initial release date wrt to the 4-month 
cycle, only. I'm not saying that this is the "best" way to go or that 
this "should" be the schedule, it's only one option.

I'm sort of aware of these CI issues (though not in detail, of course) 
which is why I wanted to kick off a discussion on that schedule "early".

I see the argument for this. Are there any distro maintainers on this 
list, other than Rik Mills that could voice an opinion? Or is there a 
better place to ask for distribution wishes wrt the schedule?

Best regards
