I didn't find it all that interesting. It's a semi-fork of the kernel
tree, and a semi-fork of half a dozen other major subsystems, along with
a sensibly configured distro underneath.
I believe all or most of the forked sources are publicly available.
Probably just most.
The NSA was all wow-wow over it simply because it was an OS with source
they could audit/modify at will.
