I don't think you can call it a rolling release unless you only count Linus branch and discount others like Linux next tree and even that is a stretch since the "rc" releases are essentially development snapshots that incrementally move towards less changes and more stability exactly like the alpha and beta releases and release candidates in a Linux distribution .
