   #FSF approved #Hyperbola #GNU + #Linux distro to hard-fork #OpenBSD kernel for its next version.
   
   Just wow. They could have just become a Lennart-ware free Linux distro. It seems like a lot of work to start over with their own fork of #BSD. They'd better have a lot of developer resources, or they'll go the way of #Hurd.

     Speaking of #Hurd, no release in 3 years. https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=GNU-2010s [phoronix]
     
     I'd love to see someone devote some energy to making it actually usable and competitive with more widely used FOSS kernels.
