6.6 LTS kernel builds have been added to the Github Woof-CE kernel-kit actions - both 32 & 64 bit with aufs and overlayfs in both traditional and usrmerge formats:

Any config tweaks should be raised as pull requests on Github.

Thank you all the kernel updates that you provide
I read your post regarding the EOL dates for several builds all ending in 2026. I wonder what will be the plans moving forward.
............ got the missing "delta" file for LXPup and successfully ended up with a new ISO. Will be trying this out shortly.
Have additional questions regarding LXPup but will post in the appropriate thread.
BTW I realised there are 2 Linux Kernel builds available ie Mainstream and Libre.
......... I am assuming your LX kernel updates are from the mainstream branch(?) ... if so,had you either consider using the Libre builds?
If not, why?

We use: https://www.kernel.org/
Libre usually means more restricted... less general purpose
