          From the article:

          Basically this Rust-written, MPL-2.0 licensed software aims to automatically configure the kernel’s CFS scheduler and dynamically deal with process priorities

          That is, it’s not an entirely different thing. It wouldn’t make much sense for system 76 to directly add it to the kernel, so I guess it’s a sort of extension…
