My feedback would be:  Were those features worthy of waiting for?  If the
larger community has a need for those features, then perhaps it was best to
wait?  Although CouchDB dev  may be trying to emulate similar approaches
such as Fedora and Ubuntu with quick release cycles for the sake of growth
of the project?  Is that your thinking, Damien?
