Beyond 0.44, is there any interest to release on the Gnome schedule - the next one being Oct which could include the SOC projects. Advantage of such a schedule would be getting the latest version into Fedora and Ubuntu releases since they kind of revolve around Gnome schedule. Just a thought.
Hmm, when we discussed this before there wasn't a strong interest, but if enough developers supported that, I think it'd be doable.
IIRC, the main feeling was that having a hard release deadline risked forcing us to release something before the developers really felt it was ready. Also, we tended to have a lot more frequent releases than GNOME, so if the distros just took whatever release was most recently done, I think we figured that'd be "close enough".
