It sounds like every six months we would get a new feature version,
with every fourth one an LTS release. That sounds great, but, unless
I've misunderstood, there has been a strong desire to keep that number
to one digit. It doesn't matter to me all that much. However, if
there is such a limit, implied or explicit, it should be mentioned and
factor into the PEP.
That aside, +1.
