We are actually pretty close to a halfway schedule for the stable
releases right now.  3.9.0 was released Sep 2, and the 3.9.1
release was scheduled for December 5 (though it's running behind as
usual).

It just seems close together because the major release process has
a longer period of RC releases and stablilization.
