So, can I mark the dde as needed for hurd even it is experiment, and, commit it and just add some readme like info is enough? why should we make ourselves so hard to maintain our code when no other people care about that? Separate it can not help the development process, but merge the repo will, and make the build and test process easy will make us newbie friendly :)
