Did anyone get zen from the github 3.6 branch to compile?
I'm getting compile errors.

nqs

I plan on more contributions to the project in the not-so-distant future.

I don't know. Both website and git are down for me too.

Bump!

Is anyone planning on getting it working?

The zen-kernel.org site point to the github. I found a neat trick to get the lastest zen patch without having to clone all 2G plus repro. github has a trick of adding .diff to a compare/commit url to outut a raw diff/patch. To get a diff of 3.5 branch that will apply to vinialla kernel 3.5:

https://github.com/damentz/zen-kernel/c ... aster.diff

Then you can search for "EXTRAVERSION = -zen" and look at the lines above to find what version of kernel you need. As of this post, 3.5.7

You can then save it in a file and patch it against kernel 3.5.

Change 3.5 to 3.8 for the latest

ie. https://github.com/damentz/zen-kernel/c ... aster.diff

I used their patches on 3.8.1 and just upgraded to 3.8.5 today.

3.8.5 seems to be snappier. Not sure what has changed or maybe it's just my perceptions.

Any ideas as to the release schedule?

Will the patchset be applied to a 3.10 kernel once it is out of RC status?

Probably as they are keeping up with the 3.9 series now.
