you should read up on what a point release actually is.
Fair enough. I was used to scientific linux where you had to opt-in for a new point release and was a bit surprised. Just assumed the upstream vendor did it the same way.
they ( = upstream ) are working on some way to achieve this... not having to roll out any package updates, and splitting each point release into a 18 month cycle.
Details on this when they are available.... we might see this kick off in 4.5.x timezone.
And of course if / when they do that ... we will figure out a way to also mirror that process :)
