Supposedly it's the most full-featured kernel build there is. Which is to say, it's got lots of drivers and whatnot added to it. I'm not sure what VM/scheduler patches it has, or anything beyond that. Lostlogic or MJC or one of the kernel guys can probably respond to this in more detail, but my general summary is probably on-target.
Rumor has it, Gentoo will be considering using something similar to wolk-sources for future releases... I could be misinformed, though. |
