Google has done their initial GPL code dump for their modified version of the Linux kernel that powers their Google Glass head-mounted display.

The Linux kernel code for the Google Glass was pushed this weekend to the google-glass-kernel-source.

This initial kernel dump is labelled "kernel-glass-XE04.0-RC06."

The initial Linux kernel powering the Google Glass prototype glasses appears derived from the Linux 3.0.31 mainline kernel.
