"testing" is always "rolling," but somewhat slowly and carefully. "unstable" is always "rolling," much more quickly. "unstable+experimental" is always "rolling," on the razor's edge. _Or_ you can target a specific release name, in which case you'll get a "rolling" release as long as that release is in testing, transitioning to a static release when that release becomes stable. Debian is very, very, flexible... -miles -- Opportunity, n.
