Hi Pierre,<br>
<br>
My concern about rolling release is what happens when something
breaks, as occasionally happens? With the current system you can
easily roll back to the last stable release. How easy will this be
under rolling releases?<br>
<br>
I welcome someone having a go at the display server. The current X
system is getting quite old, for example support for multiple
monitors can cause problems. I am very reluctant to use my laptop
with a strange projector, without first having a practice in
private, as I have had embarrassing experiences where the projector
was not compatible. This is an area where linux is still quite a way
behind Windows.<br>
