The project has just started and the goals are defined. I have setup the GitHub project, successfully compiled and installed the kernel, and posted to Hacker News.
Do you have ideas or suggestions for this fine Linux fork?

Yes: first the changes, then the publishing
Which changes do you suggest? This is the ideas-gathering and initial design thinking phase of the project.
The CHANGES document now has some real changes and future work ideas also: https://github.com/ikkje/ikkekernel/blob/main/CHANGES.md
And I forked Firefox, since I am planning to compare these two ideas to find which one is most likely to succeed: https://github.com/ikkje/ikkefox

Interesting project, I wish you luck. We do need forks of Linux, because the one-size-fits-all codebase model is starting to show its limits. But most people are stuck with mainline, because there are so many security patches to keep up with.
If you can do something to implement anything from ReactOS, so that a user can natively execute Windows/DOS software alongside *nix, it would be something of value.
> because we need a Linux fork
actually we don't
actually we don't
Is this a play on not-linux?
count me skeptical
