I see what you're saying, but I'm not sure we need a new channel. If ##hurd seems focused on only hurd, then why not go with another, pre-existing channel, such as #gnu? It seems as if a lot of people just idle in #gnu, so why not just use that? If you feel there is a real need for a new channel, I guess I like the sound of #gnu-system. -- Michael J.
