I thought of something like this from the debian web site
http://packages.debian.org/unstable/
So, everyone can easily check, which packages are available (already
ported) for the hurd system and which versions are up. So you can see,
which packages can be installed and which ones need to be ported.

I like this view more than the package files - maybe I will hack a short
package file to html converter tonight.

Thanks 
Jochen
