Hi Sam, welcome.  There's no relation whatsoever to OpenIndiana
releases here.  We're a separate distribution with our own schedule.
Stable releases are just that-- stable with respect to version
changes.  If you want more cutting-edge, then bloody is where it's at.

We are aiming for a 6-month cycle of stable releases, with bloody as a
testing ground in between.  The next stable release is in the works
and will be out Real Soon Now(tm).

HTH,
Eric
