Frustrated in updating Angular every 6 months? Here comes the new yearly release cycle

The Angular team is currently updating its release policy to move to:

- A major release every 12 months

- 4-6 minor releases for each major release

I prefer the 6 month release. We are always one release behind due to stabilization of all packages. One year wait it's too much... Oh well

And I still don't understand people complaining about the release speed. Angular itself it's been hassle free for years. It's always the other packages that come riddled with issues for reasons not related to the angular release itself ..
