The audience is anyone interested in using recent versions of the Linux kernel or other upstream projects. This includes not only enthusiasts, but developers, especially Linux kernel developers and other developers of fast moving stacks who often benefit from having a stable platform with all the latest libraries and binaries available to them. Attendees can expect to get a solid understanding of how Tumbleweed is developed, it's strengths and benefits, as well as a comparison with Tumbleweed to other similar Linux-based rolling distributions. This presentation will encourage a broader adoption of rolling releases and the mentality, methodologies and capabilities that come with it. Tumbleweed and other similar rolling releases are key platforms to enable the high speed development of the Linux kernel and other key ecosystem components which increasingly move at a faster pace than 'traditional' Linux distributions can keep up. Rolling releases are also the natural platform for not only the development but the early adoption of key emerging technologies such as Containerisation and NFV.
