"Microsoft is opening up its Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) to all 
developers in Windows 10. The company already worked with developers of 
some of the world’s most popular Linux distributions such as Ubuntu and 
Debian to make them readily available from the Microsoft Store.

And now, it's releasing a new open-source reference project that lets 
almost anyone build their own Linux distro for WSL. Using the 
open-source distribution launcher, anyone can sideload their custom 
Linux distro into their machine and run it like a regular Linux 
environment within Windows 10. And if developers of these Linux distros 
want to take things a step further, they can get in touch with Microsoft 
and publish their custom-built distro to the Microsoft Store."
