It's hard to turn a news item like this into a front page item, but I'm going to try anyway, because I think it's pretty cool news. As we all know, Debian supports a number of architectures as 'release architectures', but what some of you may not be aware of is that Debian also supports a number of kernels other than Linux. One of those, the FreeBSD kernel, has been promoted to release status, putting it on equal footing with the Linux variant.

Well, I see the smile, but they create a distro, not kernels. But yes, it would be nice to see a somewhat bigger activity around Hurd.
Regarding the new above, it's really totally front page news, this is a major one for all Debian users and fans. Really great, and I'm sending my virtual pat on the back for all those involved in making this finally happen.
