The Disaster of the Rolling Release

By Ed Hurst

I've always enjoyed exploring. Every time I've moved from one residence to another, I've always wandered around my new neighborhood, simply to see what was there. It's the same with computer technology. I love poking around operating systems. Lately, one aspect of this has gotten tiring in every Open Source operating system: the rolling release. The phrase refers to the sometimes feverish effort to add new features, long before the old ones even work properly.
