+A month of the Hurd: *first DDE driver*, *libpciaccess upstream*, *Fosdem results* and *GSoC meetings again*.

+> This month saw the first running and testable
+> [[DDE_driver_by_Zheng_Da|user/zhengda]],
+> with which he begins to reap the benefits of porting DDE to Hurd,
+> since [[dde]] allows to use current Linux drivers for Mach and L4 more easily.
+
+> Also Samuel Thibault
+> [pushed libpciaccess to Xorg](http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2010-January/048801.html)
+> which adds support in the Xserver (x86)
+> “for OSes that do not have a PCI interface,
+> tinkering with I/O ports, and makes use of it on GNU/Hurd.”
+
+> Additionally we saw the talks on the Hurd in the dev-alt room at
+> [Fosdem]().
+> in …s words:
+
+> > …
+> > …
+> > …
+
+> Sadly we couldn't yet upload notes from the talks -
+> as soon as these are availble, you'll get notice here.
+
+> And it is time for the [[Google_Summer_of_Code|community/gsoc]] again, so
+> [we started our weekly GSoC IRC meetings](http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2010-02/msg00040.html) in which we coordinate the GSoC projects.
+> [[2008|community/gsoc/2008]] the GNU Hurd had 5 successful projects,
+> 2009 saw [[another_one|user/scolobb]],
+> and we hope to make it 5 projects again this year.
+> The last few years brought
+> [libchannel](http://code.google.com/soc/2007/gnu/appinfo.html?csaid=44FB3FD69C665A08),
+> **lisp bindings**, **dtrace**,
+> **network vertualization** (which led to the DDE drivers), **procfs**
+> and [[unionmount|hurd/translator/unionmount]],
+> and we have [[dozens_of_ideas|community/gsoc/project_ideas]]
+> for innovative projects this year.
+
+> So if you're interested in working on the GNU Hurd,
+> or want to help with coordinatung, or simply want to be up to date,
+> please come and join in.
