I know of two main OS which are having rolling releases, PCLinuxOS and Arch.
While Arch is focused mainly around Experienced users, PCLinuxOS is 
widely used
and is having quite a bit of big community around it. Our aim should be 
to make Hamara a
rolling release distribution and still keep it as simple as possible for 
the user.
