+We are currently finishing the transition from a stdio-based GNU C
+Library (glibc) to a libio-based one.  This is the result of about
+five months of work we put into getting the system ready and, of
+course, the work that the glibc developers did to make glibc what it
+is.
+<P>
+This change will have various advantages, for example libio has been
+tested more extensively, as it is also used by most GNU/Linux systems
+for some time now.  However, it also means a change in the Application
+Binary Interface (ABI) of glibc, thus you will need to reinstall an
+existing Debian GNU/Hurd system.  Upgrading has not been tested at
+all, so better do not expect it to work.  Also note that you will need
+to get some of the Debian packages from <A
+HREF="ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/hurd/debian-libio/">alpha.gnu.org</A>.
+Please read the recent mailing list archives for details.
+<P>
+<B>Important Note:</B> As another temporary complication, the current
+installation tarball is available at <A
+HREF="ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/hurd/debian-staging/">a different place</A>
+than usual.

+The Hurd sources have stabilized again after a short period in
+which some of the interfaces were changed to prepare support of long
+files.  All relevant filesystem and I/O interfaces have been modified
+to use 64 bit even on 32 bit systems.
+
+In light of the small and patient user base, we decided to drop
+backwards compatibility and replace the interfaces instead extending
+them.  This means that the binaries of the Hurd, the C library, and
+some other programs need to be replaced manually, all at the same
+time, followed by a reboot.

+HREF="http://www.debian.org/ports/hurd/extra-files/hurd-upgrade.txt">detailed

+
+People not using a binary distribution need to do a full manual
+bootstrap.  It is recommended to treat this as a cross-compilation
+case.

+For one month now, the pthread implementation by Neal Walfield is part

+software for the Debian GNU/Hurd archive.  The lack of a POSIX
+compatible thread library (the Hurd was based on the cthread
+implementation that originally accompanied Mach) was a show stopper,
+and we are happy about the possibility to not only compile more
+applications, but also to start the work on migrating the Hurd source

+Critique of the GNU&nbsp;Hurd Multi-server Operating System</em></a> and a <a
+href="http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/l4-hurd/2007-01/msg00007.html">position
+paper <em>Improving Usability via Access Decomposition and Policy
+Refinement</em></a>.  Please follow the two preceding links to see the complete
+announcements.  The authors welcome comments and discussion which may be
+directed to the <a href="mailto:bug-hurd@gnu.org">&lt;bug-hurd@gnu.org&gt;
+mailing list</a> for the Critique and to the <a
+href="mailto:l4-hurd@gnu.org">&lt;l4-hurd@gnu.org&gt; mailing list</a> for the
+position paper.
+
+<p>The abstract of the Critique: <blockquote><p>The GNU&nbsp;Hurd's design was
+motivated by a desire to rectify a number of observed shortcomings in Unix.
+Foremost among these is that many policies that limit users exist simply as
+remnants of the design of the system's mechanisms and their implementation.  To
+increase extensibility and integration, the Hurd adopts an object-based
+architecture and defines interfaces, which, in particular those for the
+composition of and access to name spaces, are virtualizable.
+
+<p>This paper is first a presentation of the Hurd's design goals and a
+characterization of its architecture primarily as it represents a departure
+from Unix's.  We then critique the architecture and assess it in terms of the
+user environment of today focusing on security.  Then follows an evaluation of
+Mach, the microkernel on which the Hurd is built, emphasizing the design
+constraints which Mach imposes as well as a number of deficiencies its design
+presents for multi-server like systems.  Finally, we reflect on the properties
+such a system appears to require.</blockquote>
+
+<p>The abstract of the position paper: <blockquote><p>Commodity operating
+systems fail to meet the security, resource management and integration
+expectations of users.  We propose a unified solution based on a capability
+framework as it supports fine grained objects, straightforward access
+propagation and virtualizable interfaces and explore how to improve resource
+use via access decomposition and policy refinement with minimum interposition.
+We argue that only a small static number of scheduling policies are needed in
+practice and advocate hierarchical policy specification and central
+realization.</blockquote>

-<p>Neal Walfield and Marcus Brinkmann have written and submitted for
-publication <a
-href="http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2007-01/msg00046.html"><em>A
-Critique of the GNU&nbsp;Hurd Multi-server Operating System</em></a> and a <a
-href="http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/l4-hurd/2007-01/msg00007.html">position
-paper <em>Improving Usability via Access Decomposition and Policy
-Refinement</em></a>.  Please follow the two preceding links to see the complete
-announcements.  The authors welcome comments and discussion which may be
-directed to the <a href="mailto:bug-hurd@gnu.org">&lt;bug-hurd@gnu.org&gt;
-mailing list</a> for the Critique and to the <a
-href="mailto:l4-hurd@gnu.org">&lt;l4-hurd@gnu.org&gt; mailing list</a> for the
-position paper.
-
-<p>The abstract of the Critique: <blockquote><p>The GNU&nbsp;Hurd's design was
-motivated by a desire to rectify a number of observed shortcomings in Unix.
-Foremost among these is that many policies that limit users exist simply as
-remnants of the design of the system's mechanisms and their implementation.  To
-increase extensibility and integration, the Hurd adopts an object-based
-architecture and defines interfaces, which, in particular those for the
-composition of and access to name spaces, are virtualizable.
-
-<p>This paper is first a presentation of the Hurd's design goals and a
-characterization of its architecture primarily as it represents a departure
-from Unix's.  We then critique the architecture and assess it in terms of the
-user environment of today focusing on security.  Then follows an evaluation of
-Mach, the microkernel on which the Hurd is built, emphasizing the design
-constraints which Mach imposes as well as a number of deficiencies its design
-presents for multi-server like systems.  Finally, we reflect on the properties
-such a system appears to require.</blockquote>
-
-<p>The abstract of the position paper: <blockquote><p>Commodity operating
-systems fail to meet the security, resource management and integration
-expectations of users.  We propose a unified solution based on a capability
-framework as it supports fine grained objects, straightforward access
-propagation and virtualizable interfaces and explore how to improve resource
-use via access decomposition and policy refinement with minimum interposition.
-We argue that only a small static number of scheduling policies are needed in
-practice and advocate hierarchical policy specification and central
-realization.</blockquote></dd>

-For one month now, the pthread implementation by Neal Walfield is part

-<DD>The Hurd sources have stabilized again after a short period in

-files.  All relevant filesystem and I/O interfaces have been modified
-to use 64 bit even on 32 bit systems.
-
-In light of the small and patient user base, we decided to drop
-backwards compatibility and replace the interfaces instead extending
-them.  This means that the binaries of the Hurd, the C library, and
-some other programs need to be replaced manually, all at the same
-time, followed by a reboot.

-<DD>We are currently finishing the transition from a stdio-based GNU C
-Library (glibc) to a libio-based one.  This is the result of about
-five months of work we put into getting the system ready and, of
-course, the work that the glibc developers did to make glibc what it
-is.
-<P>
-This change will have various advantages, for example libio has been
-tested more extensively, as it is also used by most GNU/Linux systems
-for some time now.  However, it also means a change in the Application
-Binary Interface (ABI) of glibc, thus you will need to reinstall an
-existing Debian GNU/Hurd system.  Upgrading has not been tested at
-all, so better do not expect it to work.  Also note that you will need
-to get some of the Debian packages from <A

-<DD>There is a new mailing list called <A
-HREF="http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/hurd-devel-readers">
-Hurd-devel-readers</A>. It is the read-only version of Hurd-devel.
-<P>
-Hurd-devel is a mailing list for detailed discussions
-of design and implementation issues in the GNU&nbsp;Hurd; it is an internal
-low-volume list restricted to the core developers of the Hurd.  While
-the <A HREF="http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/hurd-devel/">web-based
-archive of Hurd-devel</A> has always been public, the new mailing list
-Hurd-devel-readers provides a convenient way to follow
-the discussion of the Hurd experts.
-<P>
-If you are a recipient of Hurd-devel-readers and want
-to follow up on the discussion, please reply to the
-Bug-hurd mailing list.
