Because many users (both inviduals and companies) want a schedule
so that they can plan releases.

That is an orthogonal issue.

GCC has operated [under a continuous release management,
hierarchical software management model] and it was not very
effective.

You are quite mistaken. The GCC project has never operated that way.

The approach I am suggesting is an evolutionary step beyond
the current practices and is quite consistent with the SC
development goals.
