Re: HURD kernel change

[Michael Adams <mdmkolbe@yahoo.com>]

Where is it happening?  The L4-hurd@gnu.org hurd list
is very quiet.  All of seven messages last month
(http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/l4-hurd/2003-07/index.html).
 Is there some other place to keep up with
developments in the port to L4?
