The releases are the ones quoted in the existing paragraph above. They are described using the intended month of release but yes, we do slip sometimes (rather more often than would be ideal, but we're highly limited in resources). The problem with being less specific is that if we decide to skip a release (for example, the July release, as we've only just released 24.1) people would get equally confused that we had 24.0, 24.1 and 24.3 but no 24.2.
This is a compromise, to get the idea across without being over-complicated.

It might be clearer to refer to them as quarters of the year?
