Is the reasoning here that since a release cycle has taken 9 months, so
should the next? I'm not convinced expanding the release cycle is going
to make us be on time more.

That's one option. The other option is to stick with the plan and catch 
up, as Christian Theune proposed. It would mean getting very 
unambitious, but perhaps that isn't a bad idea. The idea of a release is 
to have a reasonably stable, known-good version of the trunk, and it 
doesn't matter that much how much the trunk changes.

Anyway, if the main thing holding up *this* release is bugfixes, doing a 
new release in 3 months shouldn't be a problem, as after all, we've 
already fixed those bugs this time around. :)
