I did not say without defined timeline within the process, but not 
fixed-date. IOW, if we want to keep up a minimum with the reputation of 
fairly stable software, I don't think that for a project such as GRASS 
it would be a good idea to say "we'll have a release every six months, 
one in January and one in July". Rather, I think that to avoid the 
discussions we've had concerning which types of code modifications 
should go into a specific branch at which times and who decides what 
goes in and what does not, we should define the procedure more clearly. 
This also includes a clear calendar of the process itself.

I'll draft an RFC.
