Very resonable, I've also been feeling we need more time for
bugfixing and to allow to  stablize more before release.
I've been even getting feedback from collegues and
interested parties (especially in the enterprise markets
near me) that they would like to see more of this before
they will consider deploying Ubuntu widely. On top of that,
following this scheme will probably enable us to better give
support by limiting the scope of research for a bug or a
problem, and enable us to more easily get certified as ready
platform for various enterprise grade products [1].



Best,
