[scl.org] Rolling release naming

[Brian Gollaher]

First question is why do you need a rolling name?  And will it meet the 
general naming requirements for RHSCL?

Naming SCLs was a difficult process that took a few years with lots of 
customer involvement to get right.  My understanding is that there are 
incompatibilities with node.js releases that may cause a yum update to 
break user apps.  Is that correct?
