Gabe Aul posted an update on the frequency of Windows 10 builds for Windows Insiders

I hear lots of questions about how the Insider Program works and what’s going on with Windows 10 development through the Windows 10 Community forum and on Twitter. It’s often hard there to answer questions for everyone to hear, or to do so with the kind of detail that I’d like. Instead, I’ll periodically post to the Insider Hub with info about top questions that I hear or a blog post like this one.

The first topic has been dominating my Twitter feed for the past 2 weeks: “I want the next build!” First off, I love hearing the genuine excitement that people have about getting new builds and trying out new features, it’s what we had hoped for when we started the Windows Insider Program. Thank you all for your enthusiasm.

Beyond the excitement for a new build, there are two points that are raised that I haven’t been able to respond to well in Twitter’s 140 characters:

“I thought you said in January that builds will be coming faster from now on?”
“Why can’t you just tell us when the next build will be? Can’t you be more transparent?”

With this post I hope to be able to shine some more light on both of these. We are certainly not trying to be opaque, but the answer is more complex than it may seem it should be, and we’ve admittedly taken too long to reply to these points and left people wondering.
