Hello,
when I went to the task page with notes on the coming sound system, I
noticed that it's written there that device drivers go into Mach.
Why is that? I thought a big point of micro kernels was that a single
malfunctioning driver couldn't affect the whole system because it
doesn't sit

Hello list,
please excuse my ignorance, but what's the Status of GNU Mach?
I heard the L4 microkernel is favored for the Hurd. Do you guys
try to catch up?
Kind regards,
Leslie

Dear list,
I think a "GNU From Scratch" project, where a detailed cross-compile
process for kernel and system is presented, could attract a lot more
developers to the GNU operating system and Hurd.
Many people, like me, do not like Debian, and a lot like to roll
their own system to get to know it
