Cool.

But why Linux kernel v2.6?

It looks like it's an ancient half-abandoned project. Hopefully some people here take an interest and breath a bit more life into it.

The entire source tree is based off of git submodules and an automatic build system, right? I wonder what would happen if you ran “git submodule —update” (presuming the submodules point to master, though I am unsure if that functionality was around in git when this was published) and then tried to build it with tup.

The article appears to be from 2012:

Because that was current the last time the kernel package was updated?
