Jeremy Andrews writes "KernelTrap has spoken with Marc-Christian Petersen, who originated the WOLK project in March of 2002. WOLK is the Working Overloaded Linux Kernel, a large set of nearly 450 useful patches applied against the current stable 2.4 Linux kernel tree. The project has recently expanded to offer a second 'secure' patchset, this one against the older stable 2.2 tree. In this interview, Marc-Christian Petersen tells the history behind WOLK and discusses many of the patches included."

Actually, I disagree. I have found the WOLK kernels to contain a lot of the fixes and features we needed all in one convenient package. Of course, I stress tested the WOLK servers before putting them into the production server room. I would highly recommend anyone that is curious in the WOLK kernels to use them in a production environment.
