However, you can download the latest kernel source tarball, do your hacks and send us a patch to LKML. Then, you'll possibly get some comments (better change this to do that, some potential to do things better, ...). Send it again, until it's quite good. Then, send it to Linus (or to the guy that's maintaining the part you've changed) and LKML until it gets accepted. That's the way it works.
