Is the JPU firmware official or is it a community project?

JPU is a "Leaked" version that can be found on samfirmware.webs.com among all other versions.

It's a Samsung firmware that was not yet released via Samsung Kies which is the official (crappy) software like PC Suite.

You can find Custom community Roms based on JPU, and you can just use the stock one, which is pretty amazing even as stock.

So far samsung has not released the source code for JPU kernel, but it's pretty new, they usually release it after a couple of weeks.

As opposed to Nokia, Samsung releases it's source code.

I don't believe gingerbread will reach galaxy s officially.
Obviously nexus s will make it possible to run stock android 2.3 on galaxy s and people will hack in samsung crap, cause some of that crap is quite good. (Phone app, messaging app, music player, all nice.)
