+  "presentation by Samuel Thibault: [*Recent developments in the Hurd*](http://www.gnu.org/ghm/2013/paris/)
+
+  This talk will go through the nice developments in the GNU Hurd that have been
+  done over the past few years.  This will include work on the text console, on
+  network virtualization, and on general support improvements for languages,
+  bugfixes, etc. I will notably explain how we now run Linux network drivers in
+  a userland process, how a user can run his own TCP/IP stack and make only some
+  applications use it.
+
+
+  
+  - Console keyboard configuration through libxkb
+  - Console double-width support: chinese in text mode!
+
+  - netdde: linux 2.6.32 drivers in a userland process
+  - -> /dev/eth0
+  - remap translator
+  - user-started pfinet
+
+  - nsmux, unionmount
+
+  - list of nice translators
+    - netio/socketio
+    - tarfs, cvsfs, xmlfs, mboxfs
+    - httpfs, ftpfs, gopherfs
+    - run
+    - gopherfs
+    - libfuse
+    - nsmux
+
+  - real-life ext2fs/e2fsck debugging (see 2012-q1-q2)
+
+  - GCJ, GNAT, go ongoing
+  - fixed a lot of testsuite failures in perl & python, mostly around the 99% figure nowadays
+  - about stability: buildd daemons usually manage 5-10 days of compiling packages, essentially until hitting a package that uses a lot of memory and makes the box go OOM. I don't even remember when I last reinstalled a buildd. half a dozen years ago probably.
+
+  - Xen port: GNU Mach only
+  - translators now using cthreads
+  - small AHCI driver, which btw supports disks above 128GiB, up to 2TiB
+  - towards 64bitness. Mach boots, 32/64 RPC translation pending
+
+  - we've had a nice 0.401 release on April 2011
+  - Debian native installation
+  Last but not least, the Debian GNU/Hurd porter team has released a snapshot of
+  Debian GNU/Hurd at the same time as the Wheezy release, with a bit more than
+  75% of the Debian packages!
+
+  - contribute! There's a "small hacks" list on the contributing page.
