Such a project would be interesting to check its adoption. People complaining that stuff is too old could be directed to this rolling release version and we will likely get people complaining that stuff moves too fast, but at least, we can't be blamed to ship too old softwares, that would be a user choice. -- As flies to wanton boys are we to the gods; they kill us for their sport. -- Shakespeare, "King Lear"
