Granted some of those of patch/security releases that were minor, but you see the point. In a moment of brightness this morning it occurs to me that they need to do what there open source cousins over with Ubuntu do - regular releases as often as they want, but one release that is considered the stable long term support release once a year or something. That release will continue to function for whatever duration and only have updates of security patch type of nature applied to it.
