Not involved in the project? He dismissed its maintainer from his duties in 2003 (IIRC). >From offical dutites, yes, because Thomas went against the policies of the GNU project (outright refusing to use the GFDL in a GNU project and stuff like that), he would do the same for any other project. > Maybe, maybe not. But the Hurd (and GNU Mach) is the kernel of > the GNU system, to which we are working towards. But without any priority on Hurd. Most online docs of Hurd on the GNU websites are utterly out of date, even though not that much has happened. The priority is freedom, since it is being entrenched all the time in various ways (DRM, Flash, Java, ...). So many projects do not have a super high priority. People work on what they want to work on. We are all voluenteers. _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
