So we had this Debian Rolling BoF. This is my summary:

The idea behind Debian Rolling is that we can have an official
testing-like distribution that is good enough for widespread
usage by desktop users who always want the latest versions of all
the software. While the BoF did not result in a complete action plan,
it helped us to get a better understanding of the weight of the different
opinions that have been expressed in the latest debian-devel discussion.
It turns out that most attendants of the BoF believe that testing is
already good enough for widespread usage. So instead of starting with
something completely different, we'll start with testing and build from
there.

Cheers,
