I agree with Benjamin though is it really necessary to do two 2.7 releases a year for the last two years? that's rather rapid (but as the release manager its your call).

What I like about 6 months is that its short enough, so we don't have feel bad about not taking a certain change; it can just be pushed to the next no-too-far-away release. A year is quite a while to wait for a fix to be released. It's also a nice timeframe for some distributions (looking at you, Ubuntu).

-- Regards, Benjamin
