+
+Perl and Python are available on the Hurd, but there are quite a lot of test suite
+failures. These could be caused by problems in the system-specific
+implementation bits of Perl/Python, and/or shortcomings in the actual system
+functionality which Perl/Python depends on.
+
+The student applying for this project can pick either Perl or Python,
+whichever he is more comfortable with.
+(Perl is higher priority though; and there are more failures too.)
+
+The goal then is to fix all of the problems with the chosen language if possible, or at
+least some of them. Some issues might require digging quite deep into Hurd
+internals, while others are probably easy to fix.
+
+Note that while some Perl/Python knowledge is probably necessary to understand what
+the test suite failures are about, the actual work necessary to fix these
+issues is mostly C programming -- in the implementation of Perl/Python and/or the
+Hurd.
