It seems worth a try --- we can certainly abandon it easily if it
doesn't work.

Personally I feel every six weeks would be too short: we'd be talking
only a month of work between commit-fests.  I like a two-month cycle
partly because it wouldn't rotate relative to the calendar: we'd always
know that the first half of every odd-numbered month, or something like
that, is commit-fest time.
