<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">Second, we were initially working on porting gvisor. However, considering the stability and performance of Kata, we have decided to drop gvisor and we will now be working on porting Kata to the IBM Z mainframe platform.
This fork would as of now reside under Qata Containers. I would personally love to have the port incorporated into Qata however, some managerial and legal issues remain a hurdle. Once those are sorted and if the community agrees, we would love to merge the
port into Kata.<o:p></o:p></p>
