Is Lunar rolling release?
Hello, i've been looking into Lunar Linux lately. On Distrowatch, it appears to have stable releases that are supported for around three years, plus a rolling release version.
I can't find any official description of the release scheme. Are the releases listed in distrowatch actual releases (like Debian stable), or are they just snapshots (like with Gentoo and Arch)?

It looks like the releases are just changes to the bootstrap CDs, similar to Arch and Gentoo but it appears it's even less involved (the changelogs are very short). It is a source-based distro based on another source-based, rolling-release distro. From the bootstrap CD you can install an up to date system.
