Yes, I think you have a serious point there. I suppose the question may
be the wisdom, in PR terms, of pitching the six-month releases, rather
than the LTS releases, as "challengers" to Windows and Mac OSX. If you
get a noticeable minority of people having issues with sixth-month
releases (even acknowledging Al's point in another post that there is on
balance a majority of successful experience) the PR consequences may be
too great a risk.
