Here are the featured projects for the week, which appear on the front page of SourceForge.net:
GeckoLinux
GeckoLinux is a Linux distribution based on openSUSE. I’ve used Linux on the desktop since approximately 2001. I have used many versions of openSUSE since the project’s inception, and I used SuSE Linux before that. I’ve always appreciated openSUSE’s flexibility and highly innovative infrastructure, but the profusion of “paper cuts” in the default configuration always made me think twice before recommending it to others. This projects sets out to change that.

SharkLinux
SharkLinux is a 64 bit OS that specializes in virtualization and features a custom MATE/XFCE desktop capable of running on a cloud server with little impact on performance. The OS runs KVM as the primary hypervisor and provides a wide range of tools to build and run VM’s and containers. Some limited native support exists for DEB and RPM based Linux platforms, NixOS, osX and Windows applications. SharkLinux has several distinct qualities from other Linux systems such as; automatic system upgrades, favours source-build installers over pre-installed apps, and sudo users can run shell commands without a password. Build scripts are one-click and configured to run without conflicting with other included software. SharkLinux is built exclusively in a cloud environment to ensure compatibility and is under heavy development. A physical keyboard has never been touched while making SharkLinux. The distribution was created by a single person using only an Android smartphone.
