[Yt-dev] Time-based releases

[Cameron Hummels]

+1 to semi-annual or annual, but contingent on having a testing 
mechanism to make sure things are *stable* when we release them.  there 
is no sense in pushing out lots of versions unless we're happy to make 
sure they are stable (after all, people can download the unstable from 
the web at any time), and making things stable takes time.
