I have always wondered why it is necessary to issue a new version of Fedora (or any other OS every 6 months). Why cannot an OS be like a river, constantly flowing and always being the latest edition, with a simple yum update. Cannot programs clean up after themselves, leaving no cruft, so that this would be possible? That way, one could jump on the infinite Fedora flow at any time and always have the latest version of all programs. What forces the necessity to stop a particular version and recreate all the software and redo all of the old mistakes that were already fixed and issue a new version?

That is called Debian Sid.

And in a mildly tamed version, Sidux.

"Mildly" being the operative term: http://sidux.com/Article446.html
