But I know that both Marcus and Neal don't have a lot free time at the moment, so they can't propose HurdNG related right now. Even ``worse'', the Google Summer of Code is about writing code, which is a bit difficult since the HurdNG is still in the planning / design phase. If someone thinks that it is feasible and wants to work on (or mentor) porting the current Hurd over to a different micro kernel than Mach, feel free to speak up. > perhaps can you manage to mentor some people on Hurd projects under the > umbrella of the GNU project?
