What is this ?

It seems to me that it does what Colinux did a lot of time ago,but it works even on more cpu architectures. Am I wrong ? With l4linux I can run multiple linux distros using the same kernel. I'm very curious to try it on my ARM machine,since there is even a version for arm 32 and arm 64 bit. It sounds interesting.

No

With LXC you still have just one Linux kernels, but for processes it
"feels" like they have their own kernel "alone" but actually they are
just isolated from the other processes. The kernel got better in
providing processes own seperated "environments".
WSL is bascially using a VM

I don't really see why (except for engineering curiosity maybe) but
google, maybe there is something like this, you might also like Debian
GNU k FreeBSD
