Sorry, I meant GNU Hurd (without a slash, I was confused). I mean the official GNU Hurd source tree, which does exist, and it is completely outside of Debians control. But just like it is done with other GNU packages, Debian can add patches to it, and I frequently do. Those patches are usually of mediocre quality or don't go in the right direction of the system's design. They exist solely to add a feature urgently needed, or they are experimental. > I take it from what you write here that Debian GNU/Hurd is not the > 'official' version, simply a distro of an official version. Where is > this official version? CVS? alpha.gnu.org? Debian GNU/Hurd is right now the only binary distribution of the GNU/Hurd system. But I was talking about the GNU Hurd project, which is a GNU project on savannah. Sorry about the confusion.
