What I meant is: We can't tell the user to use the backports and if he
runs in trouble we let him alone and say he shouldn't have used it. If
we officially support and care for backports, than this is a different case.

</I>
I don't want a full rolling release, because of the listed
disadvantages. So, if you ask me what is "wrong" with Arch, I would say:
* due to the rolling release, it's nearly vanilla. This doesn't match
requirements of Mageia
* no innovations (because of vanilla)
* a rolling core system has a negative correlation with it's stability
* heavy work load
* ...
So, I don't ask for a copy of Arch nor any other distribution. I asked
(although it wasn't my idea) for something new. An compromise: a light
rolling release.
Further lack of clarity?
Greetings,
Thorsten
