The Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) 2 was one of the bigger surprises of Microsoft's developer love-in, Build. The Register had a chat with the team behind Pengwin to find out what the changes mean for devs on the platform.

Pengwin (formerly WLinux) is a Debian-based Linux optimised for the original incarnation of WSL. The latest update came in April and it's fair to say that the open-source outfit was as startled as the rest of us at Microsoft's subsequent sudden lurch Linuxwards.
