terrycloth added a new comment to an issue you are following: `` I would expect "rolling release" to mean that the operating system itself has no release version, and instead applications and libraries and things are updated as soon as there's a new, reasonably stable release. As a user, and even as a sysadmin, this seems like a nice way of doing things to me -- there's less need to start over with major OS changes, because updates become smaller, more incremental.
I of course understand that sometimes a piece of software will make backwards-compatibility-breaking changes, and we need a way to let users adapt to those changes. But perhaps instead of discrete distro releases, we could work toward having warnings and a period of time for delaying updates for those particular backward-breaking packages. ``
