Re: The HURD on the desktop ?



Jeff I would love to help out with the websites. What can I
do? Likewise I want to become an "official" Hurd developer
but I am flabbergasted by the red tape and can't find any
packages to adopt.

Depending on how "basic" the knowledge is, you could help in the
porting efforts.  There's alot of problems where people incorrectly
use some POSIX defines that give us grief.

We also have several non-programming tasks:

1) Our web sites need work.

2) Our manuals need.. err..  writing.

3) Start an "evangelisation" team that starts to look at the Hurd and
come up with good ways that Hurd features can make life easier,
better, etc.  So far our Debian efforts have been focused on being
Unix.

Soon it will be time to show the world why we're *really* cool.
