Three years experience and carrying out over 100 merges into GDC tells me that each time the development cycle starts edging towards it's fourth month, it makes things an absolute nightmare, in both the time consumed merging in the changes, and with time spent tracking down bug reports for unittests/testsuite cases that test backend code generation - with 2.060, 2.061 and 2.063 being the worst releases I have ever had to deal with - before 2.060 the release schedule (if it even qualifies as a 'schedule') was anywhere between 1-2 months.<br>

<p>One month gone and 14 of these have now been closed/fixed. Still seen no signs of moving towards a next release...<br></p>
