Tom Gall said; "We are." Joey Stanford said; "Linaro is not a Linux distribution." Jeremiah said; "I'm confused." Is there a way for Linaro to clarify the distro / non-distro position? There are lot of "distributions" that say "We're not a Linux distro!" but in reality they tie you to their dependency resolution scheme and their build system, (I'm looking at you Yocto.) If Linaro is or isn't a distro, can Linaro then please define, and adhere to, what it is? This would likely help clarify the release cycle and the stable / unstable dichotomy. If you're a distro you likely need a stable release, if you're just "shiny Linux kernel for ARM" then I guess you can just do rolling releases, but even upstream seems to have "long term kernel releases."
