Although it does look like we will be able to hold to a quarterly release schedule, it is really doubtful we have enough resources to issue point releases.
This has firmed up: there will be no point releases until quarterly releases are working very smoothly and we have enough resources to integrate point releases into our quarterly workflow.
To get bug fixes into user's hands more quickly, should we provide hot fixes when appropriate?
I'm going to try providing some Filesystem patches to see if users find them helpful. I've tried to incorporate several comments from this thread into the instructions. See http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/ReleasePractices/HotFixes If any other developers would like to post 1.36.0 patches, please feel free to add them to the above page. --Beman
