Great news! The Orca Project is nearly complete. We are just working on a few more things and looking for maintainers and doing more testing.

The biggest news is that with The Orca Project we are also going to be launching a Desktop/Notebook version to go along side with it. It will be dual-bootable with your current operating system and be based off of Android 4.0.3 and we are working on having the ability of having the ability of installing Ubuntu software and linux packages as well. We can't wait for everything.
