# T2 SDE
T2 System Development Environment
... more than a Linux distribution.
T2 SDE is not just a regular Linux distribution - it is a flexible
Open Source System Development Environment or Distribution Build Kit.
Others might even name it Meta Distribution. T2 allows the creation of
custom distributions with state of the art technology, up-to-date
packages and integrated support for cross compilation. Currently the
Linux kernel is usually used, but we also started to port T2 to
support compiling home-brew like open source package add-ons on macOS,
other BSDs, classic Unix systems (Irix, ...) or support bootstrapping
alternative micro kernel systems (like a L4 variant or
Fuchsia). Similarly building Haiku, Android, Minix, Hurd, Open (or
Pure) Darwin, Haiku and OpenBSD could be supported, too.
# Download
It is usually best to start with a pre-built ISO download. More
information, including about the latest source tree are at:
https://t2sde.org/download/
# Subversion and Git
Historically we adapted SVN when it was state of the art. Currently
we mirror to Git for user's convenience and might switch to it as
primary repository in the future.
# Feature & bug bounties
In 2021 René Rebe's https://exactcode.com started a feature bounty
program! At the time of writing paying out 10€ for bounty-S, 25€ for
bounty-M, 50€ for bounty-L and 100€ for bounty-XL feature requests
issues marked so by "rxrbln". Additionally, since autumn 2023 one
binary Euro (2.56€) may be eligible for any other bug filled by the
T2 creator.
The provided patch or pull request must be reasonable clean code and
reproducible (at least mostly) build and work. Successful bounties are
paid out thru PayPal or -if preferred, and reasoable for the amount-
wire transfer within the EU.

# History
"T2" started as a community driven fork of the ROCK Linux project in
2004 which aims at simplicity, clean and lightweight Linux build system.
"T2" was an intern project name for "try two / second try" or "technology
two". The idea was to eventually choose a more public relation aware
name, but somehow we just kept sticking with t2 so far ;-)
