Not exactely, but it’s close to say A has priority on B, and at the end it has the same consequences. Let’s think a bit more decentralize and horizontal: priority exists only in official communication. People works on what they want. Period. Now if people want to release the GNU System, would be cool not to stop them to. As I said, the extraordinary creativity we can see in all projects potentially involved (DMD, Guix, GNUnet, Hurd… I don’t know… the result of GNU Epsilon, one day, maybe? :D) is for me an evidence that build up, promote and diffuse a such system could be *really* powerful to help Free Software movement, and freedom in general. And that would contribute highly to solve “priority issues” as proprietary JavaScript (cf. what I said on the Internet and the GNU one). > forcing Hurd to follow and implement POSIX and other depassed > standards. > > The Hurd is not forced to follow any standards, nor is POSIX a > "depassed" standard. POSIX is a very good base for all things UNIX. Pipes are a nightmare on Hurd I heard. I don’t remind if it was braurn or youpi who said me POSIX was a big constraint and that with the Hurd revolutionary architecture there were far better way to do things than as they’re done with POSIX.
