Sigh... I thought you by now knew me better than that...
Yes, I didn't say it explicitly because I thought it was too obvious, which was a mistake. These except for the ones that are preparation (such as "prepare daemon so that future clients can ask with non-dash forms") need to happen at release boundaries, but these 6/12 months figures set the minimums. E.g. even if we had 6 week release cycles and 1.7.0 were to be done 6 weeks after 1.6.0, that is still too early for the client side to switch asking for "git program".
