Hi,
in the previous meeting, there have been requests about the regular "predictable" release of alsa-lib. We thought of aligning with kernel release cycle, judging from the nature of alsa-lib.
As a quick glance of the number of commits per month (see in the end of this message), alsa-lib is not so actively developed recently. (except for topology APIs)
I think releasing every 2 months makes the release maintenance effort more hard than its actual advantage. It better to release alsa-lib for 2 or more kernel release cycles.
alsa-lib 1.1.0 was released in the beginning of November, which was just after 4.3 kernel release. Now 4.5 kernel release will be likely in the next week or one week after that.

So we should release it on monday then if Linus does release on Sunday
Heh, we don't have to be that strict. But at least we can start working on releasing.
For the idea itself to release alsa-lib 1.1.1 in this month, I agree. (In this case, I might hurry up for my proposals of APIs to add control element set, after my work for Dice drivers will be merged into linux-next branch.)
Jaroslav, how about releasing alsa-lib 1.1.1 around that? There are a few pending patches, but they should be available soon.
