I did not create them. I will put it on the list to do.
You would be amazed how little time there is between releases
if you do them every 2 months.

The effort has been mostly removing boot and converging the
interpreter into book volume 5. This doesn't change the user
functionality (although I've introduced )debug and )describe).
 From my point of view the effort is continuous but I have
committed to time-boxed Axiom releases every 2 months.

There is a long thread (pre-fork) about the importance of doing
time-boxed releases every 2 months.
