Bleeding edge

Arch Linux strives to maintain and have the latest and greatest software available in its repositories. Being a rolling-release distribution, it allows a one-time install with continuous updates without ever having to reinstall or having to go to massive procedures for getting the system upgraded. The goal of bleeding edge is also to provide for the newest features popping up in the Linux world—be it in the field of filesystems (ext4, ReiserFS, XFS, JFS, Btrfs, NILFS, and so on), software RAID, or boot scripts (systemd)—along with supporting the latest features of the newest hardware because of the immediate availability of the newest kernels.
