And until we have 100% upstreamed, we need a project name different from “Linux(TM)”. 3. there are components which a kernel for daily use needs but are unlikely to get upstream ever (e.g. the gta04_defconfig, useful user space tools, GPU driver) I.e. this kernel wants to be ahead of kernel.org and support features missing in kernel.org already today.
