Are you frustrated with your release schedule? Are you considering moving to more frequent releases or wondering if there are ways to tweak your release schedule? Although the traditional pattern for software releases is to have a major release every 6-12 months or more and minor releases in between, there are many other release patterns to choose from. This session will examine the various factors and options involved, discuss their pros and cons, use examples drawn from a wide variety of companies, and give you the information you need to make an informed choice and then implement it.
