    I've been maintaining an APT repository for Linux-libre since September 2011: https://jxself.org/linux-libre/

    Since lxo announced plans to stop maintaining the Freed-ora RPM repository I've now an RPM repository too: https://rpmfreedom.org/

    It works on Fedora, CentOS, RHEL and its derivatives.

    GNU Linux-libre 5.15 is now available in my APT repository: https://jxself.org/linux-libre/
    It may take some time for the mirrors to sync though.

    Exactly ten years ago today on September 12 2011 Alexandre Oliva (the maintainer of Linux-libre) posted the announcement that my APT repository for Linux-libre was available, saying "Jason Self's Freesh apt repository carries binary .debs for 32- and 64-bit x86 systems, and support for more architectures is planned. Thanks!" It was named Freesh as the intention is to always serve up freshly-baked kernels that respect your freedom. It has since expanded to twelve supported CPU architectures.

    Each week I usually build 101 kernel packages to go into my APT repository for Linux-libre (see https://jxself.org/linux-libre). This comes from building all supported kernel versions across all supported architectures. This number doesn't include the packages built for testing before the actual releases happen. I have setup 2 more machines to help with kernel compiling, for a total of 4, and can now do the equivalent of make -j128 across the 4 machines.

    @profoundlynerdy This is outdated information. It's not being removed from the kernel after all. Someone took up the maintenance of the module in-kernel.
