If we do more releases, the releases process will become easier and maybe even a non-event.
At least, I believe that paradox :)

Here's what I propose:
- For the next 4 weeks, until 22-JUL, we focus on big, risky features.
- The 2 weeks after that, until 5-AUG, we focus on bugfixing and avoid risky changes.
On 5-AUG, I release 5.3.0.Beta1 directly from master.
If needed, we can call it 5.3.0.Alpha1 instead.

This will allow our users to verify backwards compatibility and new features sooner
and give us feed-back sooner.

What do you think? Good idea or too ambitious?
