 I'm sure this distro may be a great distro for non-english speaking users, so I don't want to be too critical. However, since the developers are not tailoring Archman for a broader audience, I can't rate it too highly. At this time, I would certainly have to choose Namib over Archman for an Arch-based rolling distro.

 Unless you speak Turkish and don't speak any English I saw no value in this over installing arch and building a system from scratch.
