* [Emmanuel DUMAS] > So, for you, what is Hurd ?
As The GNU Hurd is a GNU project, I'd think you would use the GNU definition of an operating system when referring to it in an official Hurd development document. Highlights follow: "The GNU Hurd is the GNU project's replacement for the Unix kernel." [1] "a kernel is useful only as part of a whole operating system" [2] "An operating system is not just a kernel; it also includes compilers, editors, text formatters, mail software, and many other things."
