Also he [got emacs working again](http://lists.debian.org/debian-hurd/2011/01/msg00025.html), giving the Hurd a full GNU environment and got libgc1c2 building by simply [copying the symbols file](http://lists.debian.org/debian-hurd/2011/01/msg00062.html) - along with fixing build problems of many other packages. - -* Samuel Thibault [explained](http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2011-02/msg00077.html) how to use the LiveCD to install Hurd from a USB stick (but not write to USB, as GNU Mach is still missing USB support) and - -* the Arch Hurd folks wrote a [Year of Arch Hurd](http://www.barrucadu.co.uk/year-of-arch-hurd), wrapping up their successes, including GHAMP (GNU/Hurd, Apache, MySQL, and PHP), Xorg and their [Arch Hurd LiveCD](http://www.archhurd.org/gethurd.php#livecd). - -* Also Etenil and others [improved the help output](http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2011-02/msg00011.html) of the crucial settrans command, which is used throughout the Hurd from mounting file systems to setting up the network. - -* And we started [preparing](http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2011-02/msg00000.html) for GSoC 2011 - if you are interested in contributing, why not drop by? Many project ideas can be found at [[community/gsoc/project_ideas]]. - -Finally we got a nice [mention by xkcd](http://www.explainxkcd.com/2011/01/07/good-code/) as an example of writing (too) good code (though the resolution does not really do the Hurd justice, as it ignores that it got into a state in which these news can be written in the Hurd itself, even though it has very few active developers. If you want to see how much difference *you* can make, just ask Svante). - - - -"""]] diff --git a/news/2011-q1.mdwn b/news/2011-q1.mdwn new file mode 100644 index 00000000..103f559b --- /dev/null +++ b/news/2011-q1.mdwn @@ -0,0 +1,57 @@ +[[!meta copyright="Copyright © 2011 Free Software Foundation, Inc."]] + +[[!meta license="""[[!toggle id="license" text="GFDL 1.2+"]][[!toggleable +id="license" text="Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this +document under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 or +any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; with no Invariant +Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover Texts.
