+## Who I am
+
+I am a physics student from Heidelberg, Germany, a passionate free software user and roleplayer, and I started contributing to the Hurd in minor ways about 5 years ago. Now my coding skills are good enough (and I have enough time) that I feel ready to tackle a GSoC project - and I want to take the chance GSoC offers and do a focussed effort for contributing to free software before I am no longer a student. I married 4 years ago and now have a 5½ month old son whoose happy laughing can make you forget everything around you - or at least it does that to me, but what else could you expect to hear from his father about him ;)
+
+## Project
+
+For this years GSoC I want to turn the currently rudimentary Python Bindings of the Hurd into a complete Python-library for low-level Hurd and Mach hacking with high level functionality to allow for easy creation of complex applications. Particularly it should make it possible to utilize the whole Python standard library for translators.
+
+## Preliminary Schedule
+
+*still  very rough*
+
+0. (before GSoC) Read up on the current C-interface to the Hurd and Cython. Especially grok the Hurd hacking guide. Add docstrings to all existing source files explaining what they do. Add auto-generated API-docs. Deliverable: Easy to understand API-docs of the current PyHurd, a simple way to generate them from the sources. 2 Weeks.
+1. Check the API.
+  1. Implement a Hello World translator, naivly implementing the necessary Mach parts, as example to test the current API.
+  2. redesign and realize an updated low-level API.
+  3. design a pythonic high-level API for translators.
+2. Realize a pythonic trivfs library and an example translator using it.
+3. Mid-Term: trivfs works. Push the code to https://github.com/ArneBab/PyHurd
+4. Implement more complex and specialized translator libraries, along with example translators. This should recreate the Hurd libraries for Python. Ideally seperate the libraries, so programmes can simply import the convenience functionality they need.
+5. Re-implement some hurd specific utils in pyhurd such as settrans.
+6. With the remaining time, create as many interesting translators as possible. Ideas include all compression formats supported by Python, markdown to HTML translators to be accessed with nsmux (file.mdwn,,html), automatic version tracking directories and overlay stores which store changes to nonchanging files like squaschfs, but also simple translators like translator-based write-locking of files by not catching write-accesses.
+7. Push the final code to https://github.com/ArneBab/PyHurd
+
+## Initial Fix
+
+Initial Fix: Making PyHurd build again under Cython 0.14.1. Sent as patch series to bug-hurd@gnu.org
+
+## Detailed answers
+
+### What I have to learn, and what I already know
+
+I need to dive into the detailed interfaces of the Hurd to get a better understanding of the exact requirements for a well usable Python interface, especially for higher level functionality, and read up more on working with Cython. 
+
+I already know Python and I did design my share of interfaces for my own hobby projects ([TextRPG][], [Fungus][],  [evolve-keyboard-layout][] and others).
+
+[TextRPG]: https://bitbucket.org/ArneBab/textrpg/
+[Fungus]: https://bitbucket.org/ArneBab/fungus
+[evolve-keyboard-layout]: https://bitbucket.org/ArneBab/evolve-keyboard-layout
+
+Also I know the functionality and design of the Hurd from a user perspective and can code in C and C++.
+
+### Why did you choose this project idea? What do you consider most appealing about it?
+
+FIrstoff: It is about making it possible for me to hack on the Hurd using my favorite programming language. 
+
+Also I can learn more about accessing low-level interfaces directly (as opposed to just using higher level abstractions) and grok the ins and outs of creating Python extensions - into which I wanted to dive for a long time now.
+
+And I helped getting the project running and am intrigued by how far it can be pushed.
+
+### Have you been involved in any free software ("Open Source") projects yet? Which projects, how long, and in what way have you been involved? Have you been active in the Hurd project/Hurd community before?
+
+I worked on documentation and news for the Hurd, wrote two plugins and the usage guide for Mercurial and created a bunch of personal Python projects. Also I generally try to nudge other Hurd developers into the direction of actually getting the system useful for people (and communicating its strengths) - and do the same for the freenet project.
+
+In my opinion, my major contribution to the Hurd is the Month of the Hurd, a try at fixing the Hurds reputation for never being finished. To achieve that goal, the Month of the Hurd only lists actually testable successes for which I can easily describe how they get the Hurd closer to its vision, ideally those which are already committed. 
+
+### Please briefly describe the Hurd, including the goals, architecture etc. Also, what makes you interested in the Hurd? Why do you want to work on it? What is your vision of it's future development?
+
+The Hurd offers much greater freedom for users compared to Linux, because every user can change his/her environment to a much greater extent. 
+
+Also it allows for easier low-level tinkering, making it possible for hobby-hackers to work on stuff which in linux requires dabbling with kernel-sources. Also it makes it much easier to test these low-level work, so a community can spawn which informally shares low-level hacks, giving a much bigger momentum for low-level work. 
+
+And it allows for containment of potentially dangerous applications using subhurds. As a very simple example, I can open a webbrowser without giving it access to the internet and just add that capability later, when I really want to go online (as opposed to just showing local files).
+
+But mainly: 
+
+    settrans -a ftp\: /hurd/hostmux /hurd/ftpfs /
+    dpkg -i ftp://ftp.gnu.org/…/*.deb
+
+And that’s only the beginning.
+    
+### Are you subscribed to the bug-hurd@gnu.org mailing list? (See http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-hurd )
+
+Yes :)
+
+### Do you have a permanent internet connection, especially during the time of the summer session? Are you able and willing to hang out on the Hurd IRC channel regularly? (As in: Running the IRC client more or less permanently and checking for activity now and then.) If it turns out that your mentor lives in a different time zone, could you shift your day/night rhythm to better match that of your mentor and other Hurd developers?
+
+Yes, a permanent internet connection as well as a permanently running computer. Since I’m used to also work later in the evening (on hobby projects), the time zone should not be a major issue.
+
+### When does your university term end, when are your exams, and when does the next term begin?
+
+I have a clean timetable for the summer: No exams anymore.
+
+### How much time do you intend to spend on your GSoC project per day/week during the summer months?
+
+I plan to spend at least 40 hours per week on the PyHurd. 
+
+### What other major activities will you engage in during the summer? (Moving apartments, longer vacations, other obligations, etc.) If any, how do you intend to make sure you will be able to dedicate sufficient time to your project nevertheless?
+
+Finding a job for after the GSoC. This should not take too much time, all in all, but rather mean short out-times now and then.
+
+### How do you intend to make sure that your code will keep on being maintained and supported properly after the end of the GSoC program?
+
+My main plan to keep it maintained is to comment it cleanly, and naturally to keep using the Hurd and PyHurd itself, so any breakage will bother me personally. 
+
+Also i want to get it merged into the main git repositories, so it is directly accessible for later developers.
+
+### Anything else you want to add to your application?
+
+I’d love to work on PyHurd, because it grips me more and more. For example a high level API might get as simple as 
+
+    from translator.source.text import *
+    from translator.representation.tree import *
+    def source_text_changed(text): … (adapt tree object)
+    def repres_tree_changed(tree): … (adapt text object)
+    → 2-way connectingk,5
+    writeonly is then done by simply leaving out the definition for the source_<whatever>_changed.
+    source is the node below and repres is the translated node

+
+## Project
+
+For this years GSoC I want to fix all testsuite errors python on the Hurd, which on the one hand ensures, that we have no unexpected errors in Python applications and on the other hand is a dependency for a full featured PyHurd.
+
+## Preliminary Schedule
+
+*from simple fixes to complex ones.*
+
+… TODO as soon as the testsuite finished and the results are stored → grep + decide.
+
+## Initial Fix
+
+… TODO
+
+## Detailed answers
+
+### What I have to learn, and what I already know
+
+I need to incrementally learn details of the implementation of Python and the Hurd while I move from one testsuite breakage to the next.
+
+I know Python quite well and I know the rough workings of the Hurd and can code in C and C++.
+
+### Why did you choose this project idea? What do you consider most appealing about it?
+
+I want the PyHurd project to succeed, and I love Python and the concepts behind the Hurd. So I want full Python support on the Hurd. Every testsuite breakage is a possible stumbling point for Python programs, which is very hard to debug for a Python programmer, as it lies within the platform (Python on Hurd) and not in his/her own code.
+
+### Have you been involved in any free software ("Open Source") projects yet? Which projects, how long, and in what way have you been involved? Have you been active in the Hurd project/Hurd community before?
+
+I worked on documentation and news for the Hurd, wrote two plugins and the usage guide for Mercurial and created a bunch of personal Python projects.

+
+### How do you intend to make sure that your code will keep on being maintained and supported properly after the end of the GSoC program?
+
+I plan to get the Python and the Hurd fixes upstream, in the case of Python by pushing all code to a clone of the official Python repository¹ and trying to get the Python community to accept the changes, and in the case of fixes in the Hurd by getting it integrated in the main repositories as soon as possible.
+
+¹: http://bitbucket.org/ArneBab/cpython
+
+### Anything else you want to add to your application?
+
+Alterrnately I would also like to work on [[Python bindings for the Hurd|community/gsoc/project_ideas/language_bindings]]. Both tasks together (PyHurd and Testsuite) work towards having Python as first-class citizen on the Hurd, adding all of the Python standard library to the options for using the Hurd.

+# Java for Hurd (and vice versa)
+
+Contact information:
+
+  * Full name: Jérémie Koenig
+  * Email: jk@jk.fr.eu.org
+  * IRC: jkoenig on Freenode and OFTC
+
+## Introductions
+
+I am a first year M.Sc. student
+in Computer Science at University of Strasbourg (France).
+My interests include capability-based security,
+programming languages and formal methods
+(in particular, object-capability languages and proof-carrying code).
+
+### Proposal summary
+
+This project would consist in improving Java support on Hurd.
+The first part would consist in
+fixing bugs and porting Java-related packages.
+The second part would consist in
+creating low-level Java bindings for the Hurd interfaces,
+as well as libraries to make translator development easier.
+
+### Previous involvement
+
+I started contributing to Hurd last summer,
+during which I participated to Google Summer of Code
+as a student for the Debian project.
+I worked on porting Debian-Installer to Hurd.
+This project was mostly a success,
+although we still have to use a special mirror for installation
+with a few modified packages
+and tweaked priorities
+to work around some uninstallable packages
+with Priority: standard.
+
+Shortly afterwards,
+I rewrote the procfs translator
+to fix some issues with memory leaks,
+make it more reliable,
+and improve compatibility with Linux-based tools
+such as `procps` or `htop`.
+
+Although I have not had as much time
+as I would have liked to dedicate to the Hurd
+since that time,
+I have continued to maintain the mirror in question,
+and I have started to work
+on implementing POSIX threads signal semantics in glibc.
+
+### Project-related skills and interests
+
+I have used Java mostly for university assignments.
+This includes non-trivial projects
+using threads and distributed programming frameworks
+such as Java RMI or CORBA.
+I have also used it to experiment with
+Google App Engine
+(web applications)
+and Google Web Toolkit
+(a compiler from Java to Javascript which helps with AJAX code),
+and I have some limited experience with JNI
+(the Java Native Interface, to link Java with C code).
+
+My knowledge of the Hurd and Debian GNU/Hurd is reasonable,
+as the Debian-Installer and procfs projects
+gave me the opportunity to fiddle with many parts of the system.
+
+Initially,
+I started working on this project because I wanted to use
+[Joe-E](http://code.google.com/p/joe-e/)
+(a subset of Java)
+to investigate the potential
+[[applications of object-capability languages|objcap]]
+in a Hurd context.
+I also believe that improving Java support on Hurd
+would be an important milestone.
+
+### Organisational matters
+
+I am subscribed to bug-hurd@g.o and
+I do have a permanent internet connexion.
+
+I would be able to attend the regular IRC meetings,
+and otherwise communicate with my mentor
+through any means they would prefer
+(though I expect email and IRC would be the most practical).
+Since I'm already familiar with the Hurd,
+I don't expect I would require too much time from them.
+
+My exams end on May 20 so I would be able to start coding
+right at the beginning of the GSoC period.
+Next year's term would probably begin around September 15,
+so that would not be an issue either.
+I expect I would work around 40 hours per week,
+and my waking hours would be flexible.
+
+I don't have any other plans for the summer
+and would not make any if my project were to be accepted.
+
+Full disclosure:
+I also submitted a proposal to the Jikes RVM project
+(which is a research-oriented Java Virtual Machine,
+itself written in Java)
+for implementing a new garbage collector into the MMTk subsystem.
+
+## Improve Java support
+
+### Justification
+
+Java is a popular language and platform used by many desktop and web
+applications (mostly on the server side). As a consequence, competitive Java
+support is important for any general-purpose operating system.
+Better Java support would also be a prerequisite
+for the second part of my proposal.
+
+### Current situation
+
+Java is currently supported on Hurd with the GNU Java suite:
+
+   * [GCJ](http://gcc.gnu.org/java/),
+     the GNU Compiler for Java, is part of GCC and can compile Java
+     source code to Java bytecode, and both source code and bytecode to
+     native code;
+   * libgcj is the implementation of the Java runtime which GCJ uses.
+     It is based on [GNU Classpath](http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/).
+     It includes a bytecode interpreter which enables
+     Java applications compiled to native code to dynamically load and execute
+     Java bytecode from class files.
+   * The gij command is a wrapper around the above-mentioned virtual machine
+     functionality of libgcj and can be used as a replacement for the java
+     command.
+
+However, GCJ does not work flawlessly on Hurd.r
+For instance, some parts of libgcj relies on
+the POSIX threads signal semantics, which are not yet implemented.
+In particular, this makes ant hang waiting for child processes,
+which makes some packages fail to build on Hurd
+(“ant” is the “make” of the Java world).
+
+### Tasks
+
+   * **Finish implementing POSIX thread semantics** in glibc (high priority).
+     According to POSIX, signal dispositions should be global to a process,
+     while signal blocking masks should be thread-specific. Signals sent to the
+     process as a whole are to be delivered to any thread which does not block
+     them. By contrast, Hurd has per-thread signal dispositions and signals
+     sent to a process are delivered to the main thread only. I have been
+     working on refactoring the glibc signal code and implementing the POSIX
+     semantics as a per-thread option. However, due to lack of time I have not
+     yet been able to test and debug my code properly. Finishing this work
+     would be my first task.
+   * **Fix further problems with GCJ on Hurd** (high priority). While I’m not
+     aware of any other problems with GCJ at the moment, I suspect some might
+     turn up as I progress with the other tasks. Fixing these problems would
+     also be a high-priority task.
+   * **Port OpenJDK 6** (medium priority). While GCJ is fine, it is not yet
+     100% complete. It is also slower than OpenJDK on architectures where a
+     just-in-time compiler is available. Porting OpenJDK would therefore
+     improve Java support on Hurd in scope and quality. Besides, it would also
+     be a good way to test GCJ, which is used for bootstrapping by the Debian
+     OpenJDK packages. Also note that OpenJDK 6 is now the default Java
+     Runtime Environment on all released Linux-based Debian architectures;
+     bringing Hurd in line with this would probably be a good thing.
+   * **Port Eclipse and other Java applications** (low priority). Eclipse is a
+     popular, state-of-the-art IDE and tool suite used for Java and other
+     languages. It is a dependency of the Joe-E verifier (see part 3 of this
+     proposal). Porting Eclipse would be a good opportunity to test GCJ and
+     OpenJDK.
+
+### Deliverables
+
+  * The glibc pthreads patch and any other fixes on the Hurd side
+    would be submitted upstream
+  * Patches against Debian source packages
+    required to make them build on Hurd would be submitted
+    to the [Debian bug tracking system](http://bugs.debian.org/).
+
+
+## Create Java bindings for the Hurd interfaces
+
+### Justification
+
+Java is used for many applications and often taught to
+introduce object-oriented programming. The fact that Java is a
+garbage-collected language makes it easier to use, especially for the less
+experienced programmers. Besides, its object-oriented nature is a
+natural fit for the capability-based design of Hurd.
+The JVM is also used as a target for many other languages,
+all of which would benefit from the access provided by these bindings.
+
+Advantages over other garbage-collected, object-oriented languages include
+performance, type safety and the possibility to compile a Java translator to
+native code and
+[link it statically](http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Statically_linking_libgcj)
+using GCJ, should anyone want to use a
+translator written in Java for booting.
+Note that Java is
+[being](http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/8757)
+[used](http://oss.readytalk.com/avian/)
+in this manner for embedded development.
+Since GCJ can take bytecode as its input,
+this expect this possibility would apply to any JVM-based language.
+
+Java bindings would lower the bar for newcomers
+to begin experimenting with what makes Hurd unique
+without being faced right away with the complexity of
+low-level systems programming.
+
+### Tasks summary
+
+  * Implement Java bindings for Mach
+  * Implement a libports-like library for Java
+  * Modify MIG to output Java code
+  * Implement libfoofs-like Java libraries
+
+### Design principles
+
+The principles I would use to guide the design
+of these Java bindings would be the following ones:
+  * The system should be hooked into at a low level,
+    to ensure that Java is a "first class citizen"
+    as far as the access to the Hurd's interfaces is concerned.
+  * At the same time, the memory safety of Java should be maintained
+    and extended to Mach primitives such as port names and
+    out-of-line memory regions.
+  * Higher-level interfaces should be provided as well
+    in order to make translator development
+    as easy as possible.
+  * A minimum amount of JNI code (ie. C code) should be used.
+    Most of the system should be built using Java itself
+    on top of a few low-level primitives.
+  * Hurd objects would map to Java objects.
+  * Using the same interfaces,
+    objects corresponding to local ports would be accessed directly,
+    and remote objects would be accessed over IPC.
+
+One approach used previously to interface programming languages with the Hurd
+has been to create bindings for helper libraries such as libtrivfs. Instead,
+for Java I would like to take a lower-level approach by providing access to
+Mach primitives and extending MIG to generate Java code from the interface
+description files.
+
+This approach would be initially more involved, and would introduces several
+issues related to overcoming the "impedance mismatch" between Java and Mach.
+However, once an initial implementation is done it would be easier to maintain
+in the long run and we would be able to provide Java bindings for a large
+percentage of the Hurd’s interfaces.
+
+### Bindings for Mach system calls
+
+In this low-level approach, my intention is to enable Java code to use Mach
+system calls (in particular, mach_msg) more or less directly. This would
+ensure full access to the system from Java code, but it raises a number of
+issues:
+
+  * the Java code must be able to manipulate Mach-level entities, such as port
+    rights or page-aligned buffers mapped outside of the garbage-collected
+    heap (for out-of-line transfers);
+  * putting together IPC messages requires control of the low-level
+    representation of data.
+
+In order to address these concerns, classes would be encapsulating these
+low-level entities so that they can be referenced through normal, safe objects
+from standard Java code. Bindings for Mach system calls can then be provided
+in terms of these classes. Their implementation would use C code through the
+Java Native Interface (JNI).
+
+More specifically, this functionality would be provided by the `org.gnu.mach`
+package, which would contain at least the following classes:
+
+  * `MachPort` would encapsulate a `mach_port_t`. (Some of) its constructors
+    would act as an interface for the `mach_port_allocate()` system call.
+    `MachPort` objects would also be instantiated from other parts of the JNI
+    C code to represent port rights received through IPC. The `deallocate()`
+    method would call `mach_port_deallocate()` and replace the encapsulated
+    port name with `MACH_PORT_DEAD`. We would recommend that users call it
+    when a port is no longer used, but the finalizer would also deallocate the
+    port when the `MachPort` object is garbage collected.
+  * `Buffer` would represent a page-aligned buffer allocated outside of the
+    Java heap, to be transferred (or having been received) as out-of-line
+    memory. The JNI code would would provide methods to read and write data at
+    an arbitrary offset (but within bounds) and would use `vm_allocate()` and
+    `vm_deallocate()` in the same spirit as for `MachPort` objects.
+  * `Message` would allow Java code to put together Mach messages. The
+    constructor would allocate a `byte[]` member array of a given size.
+    Additional methods would be provided to fill in or query the information
+    in the message header and additional data items, including `MachPort` and
+    `Buffer` objects which would be translated to the corresponding port names
+    and out-of-line pointers.
+    A global map from port names to the corresponding `MachPort` object
+    would probably be needed to ensure that there is a one-to-one
+    correspondence.
+  * `Syscall` would provide static JNI methods for performing system calls not
+    covered by the above classes, such as `mach_msg()` or
+    `mach_thread_self()`.  These methods would accept or return `MachPort`,
+    `Buffer` and `Message` objects when appropriate. The associated C code
+    would access the contents of such objects directly in order to perform the
+    required unsafe operations, such as constructing `MachPort` and `Buffer`
+    objects directly from port names and C pointers.
+
+Note that careful consideration should be given to the interfaces of these
+classes to avoid “safety leaks” which would compromise the safety guarantees
+provided by Java. Potential problematic scenarios include the following
+examples:
+
+  * It must not be possible to write an integer at some position in a
+    `Message` object, and to read it back as a `MachPort` or `Buffer` object,
+    since this would allow unsafe access to arbitrary memory addresses and
+    mach port names.
+  * Providing the `mach_task_self()` system call would also provide access to
+    arbitrary addresses and ports by using the `vm_*` family of RPC operations
+    with the returned `MachPort` object. This means that the relevant task
+    operations should be provided by the `Syscall` class instead.
+
+Finally, access should be provided to the initial ports and file descriptors
+in `_hurd_ports` and provided by the `getdport()` function,
+for instance through static methods such as
+`getCRDir()`, `getCWDir()`, `getProc()`, ... in a dedicated class such as
+`org.gnu.hurd.InitPorts`.
+
+A realistic example of code based on such interfaces would be:
+
+    import org.gnu.mach.MsgType;
+    import org.gnu.mach.MachPort;
+    import org.gnu.mach.Buffer;
+    import org.gnu.mach.Message;
+    import org.gnu.mach.Syscall;
+    import org.gnu.hurd.InitPorts;
+
+    public class Hello
+    {   
+       public static main(String argv[])
+           /* Parent class for all Mach-related exceptions */
+           throws org.gnu.mach.MachException
+       {   
+           /* Allocate a reply port */
+           MachPort reply = new MachPort();
+
+           /* Allocate an out-of-line buffer */
+           Buffer data = new Buffer(MsgType.CHAR, 13);
+           data.writeString(0, "Hello, World!");
+
+           /* Craft an io_write message */
+           Message msg = new Message(1024);
+           msg.setRemotePort(InitPorts.getdport(1));
+           msg.setLocalPort(reply, Message.Type.MAKE_SEND_ONCE);
+           msg.setId(21000);
+           msg.addBuffer(data);
+
+           /* Make the call, MACH_MSG_SEND | MACH_MSG_RECEIVE */
+           Syscall.machMsg(msg, true, true, reply);
+
+           /* Extract the returned value */
+           msg.assertId(21100);
+           int retCode = msg.readInt(0);
+           int amount = msg.readInt(1);
+       }
+    }
+
+Should this paradigm prove insufficient,
+more ideas could be borrowed from the
+[`org.vmmagic`](http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.151.5253&rep=rep1&type=pdf)
+package used by [Jikes RVM](http://jikesrvm.org/),
+a research Java virtual machine itself written in Java.
+
+### Generating Java stubs with MIG
+
+Once the basic machinery is in place to interface with Mach, Java programs
+have more or less equal access to the system functionality without resorting
+to more JNI code. However, as illustrated above, this access is far from
+convenient.
+
+As a solution I would modify MIG to add the option to output Java code. MIG
+would emit a Java interface, a client class able to implement the interface
+given a Mach port send right, an a server class which would be able to handle
+incoming messages. The class diagram below, although it is by no means
+complete or exempt of any problem, illustrates the general idea:
+
+[[gsoc2011_classes.png]]
+
+This structure is somewhat reminiscent of
+[Java RMI](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_remote_method_invocation)
+or similar systems,
+which aim to provide more or less transparent access to remote objects.
+The exact way the Java code would be generated still needs to be determined,
+but basically:
+
+  * An interface, corresponding to the header files generated by MIG, would
+    enumerate the operations listed in a given .defs files. Method names would
+    be transformed to adhere to Java conventions (for instance,
+    `some_random_identifier` would become `someRandomIdentifier`).
+  * A user class, corresponding to the `*User.c` files,
+    would implement this interface by doing RPC over a given MachPort object.
+  * A server class, corresponding to `*Server.c`, would be able to handle
+    incoming messages using a user-provided implementation of the interface.
+    (Possibly, a skeleton class providing methods which would raise
+    `NotImplementedException`s would be provided as well.
+    Users would derive from this class and override the relevant methods.
+    This would allow them not to implement some operations,
+    and would avoid pre-existing code from breaking when new operations are
+    introduced.)
+
+In order to help with the implementation of servers, some kind of library
+would be needed to associate Mach receive rights with server objects and to
+handle incoming messages on dedicated threads, in the spirit of libports.
+This would probably require support for port sets at the level of the Mach
+primitives described in the previous section.
+
+When possible, operations involving the transmission of send rights
+of some kind would be expressed in terms of the MIG-generated interfaces
+instead of `MachPort` objects.
+Upon reception of a send right,
+a `FooUser` object would be created
+and associated with the corresponding `MachPort` object.
+If the received send right corresponds to a local port
+to which a server object has been associated,
+this object would be used instead.
+This way,
+subsequent operations on the received send right
+would be handled as direct method calls
+instead of going through RPC mechanisms.
+
+Some issues will still need to be solved regarding how MIG will convert
+interface description files to Java interfaces. For instance:
+
+  * `.defs` files are not explicitly associated with a type. For instance in
+    the example above, MIG would have to somehow infer that io_t corresponds
+    to `this` in the `Io` interface.
+  * More generally, a correspondence between MIG and Java types would have
+    to be determined. Ideally this would be automated and not hardcoded
+    too much.
+  * Initially, reply port parameters would be ignored. However they may be
+    needed for some applications.
+
+So the details would need to be flushed out during the community bonding
+period and as the implementation progresses. However I’m confident that a
+satisfactory solution can be designed.
+
+Using these new features, the example above could be rewritten as:
+
+    import org.gnu.hurd.InitPorts;
+    import org.gnu.hurd.Io;
+    import org.gnu.hurd.IoUser;
+
+    class Hello {
+       static void main(String argv[]) throws ...
+       {
+           Io stdout = new IoUser(InitPorts.getdport(1));
+           String hello = “Hello, World!\n”;
+
+           int amount = stdout.write(hello.getBytes(), -1);
+
+           /* (A retCode corresponding to an error
+               would be signalled as an exception.) */
+       }
+    }
+
+An example of server implementation would be:
+
+    import org.gnu.hurd.Io;
+    import java.util.Arrays;
+
+    class HelloIo implements Io {
+       final byte[] contents = “Hello, World!\n”.getBytes();
+
+       int write(byte[] data, int offset) {
+           return SOME_ERROR_CODE;
+       }
+
+       byte[] read(int offset, int amount) {
+           return Arrays.copyOfRange(contents, offset,
+                                     offset + amount - 1);
+       }
+
+       /* ... */
+    }
+
+A new server object could then be created with `new IoServer(new HelloIo())`,
+and associated with some receive right at the level of the ports management
+library.
+
+### Base classes for common types of translators
+
+Once MIG can target Java code, and a libports equivalent is available,
+creating new translators in Java would be greatly facilitated. However,
+we would probably want to introduce basic implementations of file system
+translators in the spirit of libtrivfs or libnetfs. They could take the form
+of base classes implementing the relevant MIG-generated interfaces which
+would then be derived by users,
+or could define a simpler interface
+which would then be used by adapter classes
+to implement the required ones.
+
+I would draw inspiration from libtrivfs and libnetfs
+to design and implement similar solutions for Java.
+
+### Deliverables
+
+  * A hurd-java package would contain the Java code developed
+    in the context of this project.
+  * The Java code would be documented using javadoc
+    and a tutorial for writing translators would be written as well.
+  * Modifications to MIG would be submitted upstream,
+    or a patched MIG package would be made available.
+
+The Java libraries resulting from this work,
+including any MIG support classes
+as well as the class files built from the MIG-generated code
+for the Mach and Hurd interface definition files,
+would be provided as single `hurd-java` package for
+Debian GNU/Hurd.
+This package would be separate from both Hurd and Mach,
+so as not to impose unreasonable build dependencies on them.
+
+I expect I would be able to act as its maintainer in the foreseeable future, 
+either as an individual or as a part of the Hurd team.
+Hopefully,
+my code would be claimed by the Hurd project as their own,
+and consequently the modifications to MIG
+(which would at least conceptually depend on the Mach Java package)
+could be integrated upstream.
+
+Since by design,
+the Java code would use only a small number of stable interfaces,
+it would not be subject to excessive amounts of bitrot.
+Consequently,
+maintenance would primarily consist in
+fixing bugs as they are reported,
+and adding new features as they are requested.
+A large number of such requests
+would mean the package is useful,
+so I expect that the overall amount of work
+would be correlated with the willingness of more people
+to help with maintenance
+should I become overwhelmed or get hit by a bus.
+

+
+## Conclusion
+
+This project is arguably ambitious.
+However, I have been thinking about it for some time now
+and I'm confident I would be able to accomplish most of it.
+
+In the event multiple language bindings projects
+would be accepted,
+some work could probably be done in common.
+In particular,
+[ArneBab](http://www.bddebian.com/~hurd-web/community/weblogs/ArneBab/2011-04-06-application-pyhurd/)
+seems to favor a low-level approach for his Python bindings as I do for Java,
+and I would be happy to discuss API design and coordinate MIG changes with him.
+I would also have an extra month after the end of the GSoC period
+before I go back to school,
+which I would be able to use to finish the project
+if there is some remaining work.
+(Last year's rewrite of procfs was done during this period.)
+
+As for the project's benefits,
+I believe that good support for Java
+is a must-have for the Hurd.
+Java bindings would also further the Hurd's agenda
+of user freedom by extending this freedom to more people:
+I expect the set of developers
+who would be able to write Java code against a well-written libfoofs
+is much larger than
+those who master the intricacies of low-level systems C programming.
+From a more strategic point of view,
+this would also help recruit new contributors
+by providing an easier path to learning the inner workings of the Hurd.
+
+Further developments
+which would build on the results of this project
+include my planned [[experiment with Joe-E|objcap]]
+(which I would possibly take on as a university project next year).
+Another possibility would be to reimplement some parts
+of the Java standard library
+directly in terms of the Hurd interfaces
+instead of using the POSIX ones through glibc.
+This would possibly improve the performance
+of some Java applications (though probably not by much),
+and would otherwise be a good project
+for someone trying to get acquainted with Hurd.
+
+Overall, I believe this project would be fun, interesting and useful.
+I hope that you will share this sentiment
+and give me the opportunity to spend another summer working on Hurd.

+# Potential applications of object-capability languages
+
+The work discussed is this last part would have
+fewer immediate benefits for the Hurd project
+and has more of a research orientation.
+It is also unlikely that there would be any time remaining 
+to work on it at the end of the summer.
+(Though it could work as some kind of reward
+if I somehow managed to do a prefect job of all the rest
+within the allocated time :-) ).
+As a consequence,
+I don't really consider this a part of my application.
+
+This being said,
+to some extent the project discussed here
+will informed the way I design the Java bindings,
+since it depends on them
+and I intend to work on this at some point in the future.
+I also believe it touches on some interesting ideas,
+and a Summer of Code application is probably
+as good an occasion as any to discuss them.
+
+### Justification
+
+The primary advantage of multi-server operating systems is the ability to
+break what used to be the kernel into small pieces which can be isolated
+from each others. This makes sense from an engineering perspective, as
+smaller components can be swapped with different implementations and reduce
+the impact of bugs.
+A capability-based approach also ensures that the
+authority wielded by components is clear and reduced to the minimum required
+for them to function.
+These properties are crucial to the Hurd's agenda of user freedom,
+since in order to allow them to plug their own code into the system

+However, this flexibility has a cost. In a system where the isolation of
+components relies on running them inside different address spaces,
+communication between them must be done through IPC calls.
+This introduces a trade-off between the size of the modules
+and performance as well as practicality,
+which imposes a limit to the granularity with which the system
+can be decomposed and the principle of least authority applied
+(to the code within a given process, a Mach port is ambient authority).
+
+Another issue is that of the threading structure of the system as a whole.
+In systems based on a monolithic kernel, user threads execute the kernel
+code themselves, which is then intrinsically concurrent. By contrast, in a
+system based on a “client-server” paradigm, each server must be explicitly
+multi-threaded if it is to serve requests concurrently. 
+
+### Object-capability languages
+
+An object-capability language is an object-oriented language which is
+restricted enough so that object references are themselves capabilities.
+
+One such language is Joe-E (FIXME: lien),
+which is an object-capability subset of Java:
+global state and static methods are mostly forbidden;
+careful white-listing of the objects and methods
+provided by the Java standard library
+ensures that compliant code cannot not access ambient autority.
+Ways in which object references can be transferred
+are restricted to the most obvious ones
+(for instance, exceptions are carefully restricted).
+
+As a result, untrusted Joe-E code can be executed without any further
+isolation and its autority can be controlled by carefully limiting the
+object references which are passed to it.
+This would allow to load and execute translators written in Joe-E
+in a single address space.
