Thanks for the inquiry. I am now 8 years into retirement and
have reduced lsof work to the minimum necessary to support a
few remaining dialects, including mainstream Linux. As a
result I'm not inclined to take on a new port.
Since the lsof sources are open software with just a few
restrictions imposed by the Purdue copyright, it would be
permissible for someone else to do the Hurd port.
Regards,
Vic
