there are now several releases most weeks. the limiting factor is the
energy of the IPMC to review and approve these releases. once the IPMC
starts to approve releases more promptly and the standard of releases
submitted improves, i expect the frequency of release to increase.

the bandwidth used pushing releases out to all the mirrors would be
large. using a subset for incubator releases would address this
concern.
