Indeed a good thing to do.

I appreciate that you are with (most of) us then here.
I'm sure that people from the development team also could add facts 
about bugs that have been fixed in the 3.5 branch and (for various 
reasons) still exist in the 3.4 branch.
So that also adds to the impression that with 3.5 things are OK.

W've spend quite some time in discussing the QA/release cycle from 
somewhere May last year onwards. And because of that changed some things 
in the flow.
But indeed I think it's definitely useful to have a fresh look again 
once all the dust for the 3.5 release is settled. Will be on Dev  & QA 
list obviously. (There are also some items from the previous discussion 
that we parked to have a look later.)
And indeed interesting for the next major release, is how QA will catch 
up even more, so that possibly release discussions will be even more on 
facts, this a bit less on 'impressions'.

Thanks a lot,
Cor
