READ ME FIRST! This is beta. Some things may not work properly. If you find a problem, please either respond to this thread, or add a bug on the issue tracker on github. Thanks!
Introduction
This kernel is built from Samsung's T959VUVKJ6 Kernel source drop with some slight modifications.
There are plans for this kernel to have voodoo sound, bln, and optimizations in the future.
But for now, stability and code cleanliness are top priority.
The thread title will update as I do. I don't have any scheduled plans, so don't ask for ETAs.
Changes
My code is hosted on GitHub. You can find the latest changes there.
Btw... I actually tag my releases
Plans
I sorta did a little brain dump on what I'm thinking here.
Initramfs
We are now on a new version of CWM: v5.0.2.7
Old backups from previous nandroid's WILL NOT restore with this version, as the nandroid backup format changed.
New recovery fixes backup & restore, adds the ability to restart adbd and restart to download mode.
Current Support
AFAIKT, this kernel is basically just like stock, but adds ext4(and jbd2), tun, cifs, fuse, and si4709 modules.
Debug info was recently disabled, which should also speed things up a bit.
ChainDD's Free Superuser.apk and /system/xbin/su are automatically installed/updated if needed.
Same with RaverX3X's bootanimation binary.
Download
Either flash from CWM or:

krylon360
RaverX3X (moral support, testing, bootanimation binary)
SeafoodExpert, FBis251, and zargeus (for testing)
pawitp (thanks again for your help earlier)
supercurio (for voodoo lagfix and everything else!)
ChainsDD (for Superuser.apk and su)
Benjamin Dobell (for Heimdall, my current favorite program)
Last, but not least...
Samsung (for the source, of course)
