Debian and its clones Debian GNU/Hurd can now be installed a little easier. "This month Philip Charles created a new installation CD, the L series, for the Hurd, which brings us a big step towards installing the Hurd from the Hurd (without the need of a Linux-based installer). If you enjoy testing stuff, please give it a try."

Deciding on a new microkernel is key to the project moving forward. The developers identify this problem on their GNU Hurd Wiki. I wish they could settle on one and get the project moving faster.

I wonder how much of the current development work can be ported over to a new microkernel. My hope is allot of the work can be re-used, or else it will be like starting over again.
