A [list of build failures including error messages](http://unstable.buildd.net/buildd/hurd-i386_Failed.html) can be found, as well as a [preliminary analysis](http://lists.debian.org/debian-hurd/2007/07/msg00000.html) of them and [solutions](http://lists.debian.org/debian-hurd/2007/07/msg00001.html). It might be a good idea to record your intention to port something either in the list below or in the [Alioth task tracker](http://alioth.debian.org/pm/task.php?group_project_id=34&group_id=30628&func=browse) so other people do not do duplicated work. Aside from the Alioth task tracker, here is a list of some packages (the important ones, as they're, e.g., blocking other packages from being built) that need someone to work on them. When you have a patch to submit, please adhere to the [[patch_submission]] guidelines. There is also further information available about [[hurd/porting]].
