A slightly longer cycle would help everyone, I think.

I've still not installed 10.0 on one of my machines.
Perhaps I should wait for April and 10.1...?

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. If your system is running perfectly,
there is no reason to upgrade to a newer version. If I were not that
much interested in openSUSE, I would still be running SUSE 9.1 wich did
a great job.

I personally wil most likely wait two to three weeks or something before
I install 10.1, IF I install 10.1

Could be that I wait till 10.2 when the build service is up and running
(january 2007)

If you are in a working enviroment, what I would do is install the
current version, wait two years and install the newer current version.
If I would have several PC's to maintain, I would see that they all have
the same version. e.g. if I would have 10 PC's that would still be
running 2.3, I would wait till 9.2 runs out of support and then move ALL
systems to whatever is current at that time.

Wait 2 years and do the same.

Good advice. But I have two machines running 10.0 and one
back on 9.1. That's the one I want to upgrade. Then all
will be on the same OS.

That makes life easier for me.
