One other project comes to mind that also updates every six months: Ubuntu. Last I checked, their ecosystem was doing fairly well. I wouldn't consider Ubuntu "unfinished" unless we're talking about the state of all software everywhere.

Does Ubuntu ship breaking changes every six months? Do Ubuntu developers rely on other developers to keep their shared code updated and/or fork their repositories to support both new and old versions of the framework, every six months?

But, of course, Ubuntu also has LTS (Long Term Support) versions for people who don't want to upgrade frequently (you get security patches and the like but otherwise things stay stable for years). http://tech.shantanugoel.com/2008/05/21/ubuntu-what-exactly-does-lts-mean.html http://tech.shantanugoel.com/2008/05/21/ubuntu-what-exactly-...

Ubuntu also has LTS releases for this exact reason.

  Once the framework has actually shown some degree of maturity I don't think it would be unfair to ask the Angular team for an LTS version of Angular.

To update an app for the latest ubuntu, the worst case scenario is that you have to recompile.
