We're not so good in keeping up with deadlines - our recent 3.5 version
slipped for 2.5 months past the original plan. With longer cycles, this
is even harder to control.

Can we instead break the "heavier" features to smaller phases, that are
easier to maintain, and deliver the complete feature in 3.7?
