Pierre,

There are some immediately practical things here.  Some things will
be a large jolt for the community and might be better introduced in
future releases.

Good:
  - Scheduled releases
  - Use of RFCs
  - No PHP script breakages in x.y.z+1 releases

Too complex or not good:
  - Number of concurrent branches: Johannes's suggestion was good
  - Secret voting & automated polls: many things are not binary
    decisions and need discussion
- Feature preview release: good in theory. Is there any need to
    formalize this since anyone can create a patch (or fork etc)?
