tbf, any rolling distro is a devel version. to be different requires an 
enormous amount of testing; and even then stability cannot be guaranteed...

i disapprove, i need stability, i couldn't care less about newer versions.

(and besides, if you want newer versions, you can always get them from 
backports)
