Where can I download the source code of JXcore? Or is it a closed source fork/distro?
What are the advantages over using official builds for rpi? http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.10.24/

> Compiling Node.JS on Raspberry PI unfortunately takes lots of time (approx. 4 hours!!)

Can't be cross compiled ??

I'm sure it can:

    $ apt-get install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi
You can also find a pre-compiled .deb here https://github.com/nathanjohnson320/node_arm
Sure but if you have the environment prepared for that... Hey! this is already compiled, tested etc with lots of additions and ready for hacking!
