Bugfix release process

Description

I was wondering if it would be possible to have more frequent bug fix releases of the latest stable Ruby. For example, if there was a 3.x.1 available two to three months after 3.x came out, it would make it more appealing to upgrade from a bug safety perspective. Right now there is no bug fix release for 3.3.

I'm not sure what the release process is for bug fix releases - is there any information on this available? I couldn't find any, or any place other than this bug tracker where it seemed like this would be discussed. Sorry if this is the wrong place.

I would also love to see more transparency here. We want to upgrade to 3.3, but we're currently blocked due to https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20091 and unsure when a patch release will hit.

Thanks for bringing this up. I tried to discuss it at the last dev meeting, but I think the core team missed my question.

In speaking about 3.3.1, we are working in progress for that.

Please wait for complete that work.
