I certainly think so! Also, we've had releases *every month*!

Options as I see them
1/ Continue with the current workflow, patches signed off, passed qa,
then into master, with the goal to increase the rate patches are
signed off
2/ Refine the workflow to make signing off easier
3/ Redesign the workflow eliminating sign off (for a period, or all of
the release)
4/ Step aside to let someone else have a go at RM

I think it would be very unfortunate to lose you as RM. Under your leadership, 3.4 rocked, and 3.6 promises to be even better. I vote for choice 1, unless someone has a concrete suggestion on how to refine the workflow for choice 2 (though, I will say, to me personally the current workflow seems to make a lot of sense), at which point I'd be interested in listening.
