Hmmm, I don't think so. Take a look at
 http://lwn.net/Distributions/
There must be some equivalent distribution around.

IMHO we are not quite there were we want to be, that's why we only
have betas right now. I would wait with writing articles for magezines
till we have a really stable and secure base. With secure I mean,
verified by 1000 eyes. With stable I mean that we are just updating
the sources of the tools to the new version which fix security
problems and not system relevant stuff like SysV init, ....
