The difference would be have a release each 6 months or even less, instead of 
each two years (or more).

IMHO release critical bugs would be one of the good test for CUT. That is to 
say, if the RC bug is already reviewed-reproduced then what is the point to 
release with CUT something what does not work?, CUT wouldn't be any different 
from a testing release, so what would be the point?

So, almost the same than testing?
