March 9th: The harddrive holding the torrent files and the RSS feeds has died on us around March 1st. A new one is on the way. Please standby while we put services back online (this will take a few days as we are waiting for the new hard-drive).
March 12th: Restoration is moving along. Most of the software and games have been updated while a few distributions are good to go. We are expecting the new hard-drive tomorrow and we will proceed to upgrading the distributions then.

Void Linux is an independently rolling Linux distribution that uses the X Binary Package System (XBPS) package manager, which was designed and implemented from scratch, and the uses runit as its init system.
Compare to the majority of distribution families, Void Linux uses the runit init system instead of systemd. It is the first distribution to incorporate by default LibreSSL as the system cryptography library. It also distinguish from others as offering separate repositories and installation media for the glibc and musl libraries.
New Feature: Hybrid Torrents
Hybrid torrents support the BitTorrent V1 and V2 protocol. Its support is not well spread out yet so we recommend that you still use v1 (aka the "torrent" column).
