+Wolfgang also created a wonderful list of [Easy tasks](http://mail.gnu.org/pipermail/help-hurd/2002-July/006413.html) on July 28, 2002 that I will quote here:
+
+ 0 - Check if all programs handle options (at least --help, --version and
+ --usage; don't forget about the shell scripts)
+ 1 - Check if all translators handle fsysopts
+ 1 - Check if all translators respond to "settrans -g"
+ 1 - More tests of this kind
+ 2 - Fix those of the above who don't work as intended
+ 2 - Document (in doc/hurd.texi) all undocumented programs (translators as
+ well as programs in utils/ and sutils/ and some others)
+ 1 - Find a POSIX test suite, run it on GNU/Hurd, report the results
+ 1 - Find more useful test suites to run
+ 3 - Update INSTALL-cross
+ 2 - Check if all the store classes in libstore work (we have many of them,
+ look into the Makefile)
+ 4 - Fix those who don't work
+ 2 - Document all still undocumented store classes
+ 2 - The console is pretty new code, it told me it wants to get tested
