Well, let's try to be constructive.

For all people interested into having a rolling release or a core based
distribution, I propose that they write a document explaining :

- the release process ( ie, what you put on iso ) 
 - based on what criteria
   - time based ?
   - regular snapshot ?
   - features based ?
- how to decide what packages are upgraded day to day
  - what criteria for what kind of upgrade ( version upgrade, patch
upgrade )
  - what procedure for upgrade ( test stage, direct upgrade ? )
  - for how long 
  - how are updates built ( ie, against what tree ) 
- what packages are not upgraded , unless there is a release, if there
is one
  - what criteria warrant the stability of this component
  - how do we decide it will be upgraded 

Once people are able to produce this document, we will all be able to be
on the same wavelength.
