January 14. Rom updated to include Google's January 2016 security patches. Also, selinux not only disabled, but completely removed: the rom compiled without selinux sources/binaries.
Kernel does NOT include recovery, so use TWRP for Fota/Recovery partition.

For those who prefer to stick to bugless kitkat: Rom updated to include all "shields up" features including cleaning creepy Ips and dns defaults. Compiled just a few days ago.

Here is Slimkat 10 unofficial built from sources on March 2. Built using JDK-7, which turned out to be beneficial for the rom. Slim, fast, smooth and stable. For those of you who have been using Lollipop for a while, you will see how much faster, smoother and more stable kitkat is. Everything works: no reboots, no freezing, no overheating, no screen light flickering, no video recording/play problems, great battery life and abundance of features. This taken together with improved security makes a pretty darn good rom. I tried it and got rid of Lollipop.
Changes:
1. New Iptables binaries which allow to stop kernel communicating (if used with Afwall) with Google home.
2. Changes in Vold to enable 256 bit AES encryption, as opposed to default 128 bit
3. Key length increased for multiple keys
3. Kernel with disabled Selinux and enabled Tomoyo together with all ciphers/hushes/digests/random number generation tools
4. Latest changes from Google code (I was surprised finding changes pushed for kitkat while synching Google source)
5. TWRP 2.8.x integrated in boot image
Install:
1. Be on Kitkat, rooted with recovery
2. Enter recovery and wipe Cache/System/Data
3. Flash the rom and reboot
4. Enjoy and say thank you or perhaps donate
