-Jeremie Koenig: [procfs rewrite](http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2010-08/msg00165.html): I have successfully tested it with most of the Linux procps utilities,
-as well as busybox and htop. It seems to be stable, not too slow, and it
-stays under 1.5M in resident size. To get and test it:
-
-    git clone http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/hurd/hurd.git
-    cd hurd
-    git remote add jk git://github.com/jeremie-koenig/hurd.git
-    git fetch jk
-    git checkout jk/procfs  # Add "-b procfs" to create a local branch.
-    make procfs
-    settrans -ag /proc procfs/procfs --compatible
-    # you now have your new procfs setup for your user
+> This month you can get a lot of insight into the Hurd watching the
+> presentations from Neal Walfield and Michael Bank on Hurd 
+> [at the GHM (GNU Hackers' Meeting) in denhaag](http://www.gnu.org/ghm/2010/denhaag/) 
+> ([video: “It’s About Freedom”)](http://audio-video.gnu.org/video/ghm2010/GNU-Hurd_-_Its_About_Freedom,_Or_Why_you_should_care.ogv))
+> and Debian GNU/Hurd 
+> [at the DebConf10](http://penta.debconf.org/dc10_schedule/events/595.en.html):

+> [video](http://meetings-archive.debian.net/pub/debian-meetings/2010/debconf10/high/1117_Debian_GNUHurd.ogv)), 
+> including a very nice nod towards the main forces who are presently 
+> pushing the Hurd into the future *(further 
+> [[media_appearances]] of the Hurd).*
+

+> [rewrote procfs](http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2010-08/msg00165.html)

 <!--note: this shows off the ease with which you can test deeper changes in the Hurd, so I think it warrants the space it gets.-->
 
-Jeremie Koenig: Fix and cleanup the buildsystem: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2010-08/msg00105.html
-
-Thomas Schwinge: [added more information](http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2010-08/msg00066.html) into the wiki, notably open issues, to facilitate coordination, and started converting [hurdextras cvs repositories ]() into the [hurd git repos]() and the [incubator repository]().
-
-Diego Nieto Cid brought the console-driver-xkb up to date for [Arch Hurd](http://archhurd.org) http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2010-08/msg00012.html
-
-Also Arch Hurd [released a new LiveCD](http://www.archhurd.org/news/17) ([changes](http://www.barrucadu.co.uk/arch-hurd-livecd-i686-core-2010-08-25iso)) which is a lot more stable that the previous one (including a more stable X, now at Xorg 1.9!), added a [Planet Arch Hurd](http://planet.archhurd.org/) which aggregates the Arch Hurd Blogs and packaged everything you need for a [HAMP](http://www.archhurd.org/news/18/) system: Hurd, Apache, MySQL and PHP. Besides: You can now [flattr](http://flattr.com/thing/44395/Arch-Hurd) Arch Hurd, if you want to support the project. 
-
-Neal presented the Hurd at the [GHM (GNU Hackers' Meeting) in denhaag](http://www.gnu.org/ghm/2010/denhaag/) ([video: It’s About Freedom (Or Why you should care)](http://audio-video.gnu.org/video/ghm2010/GNU-Hurd_-_Its_About_Freedom,_Or_Why_you_should_care.ogv)). 
-
-Also Michael Bank presented Debian GNU/Hurd [at the DebConf10](http://penta.debconf.org/dc10_schedule/events/595.en.html): ([slides: “Past. Present.

-Review of what the current Hurd contributors [still need](http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2010-08/msg00029.html) to use the Hurd for most of their day-to-day tasks with [summary](http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2010-08/msg00087.html).
