+ <zacts> what is the hurd equivalent of a freebsd jail?
+ <braunr> zacts: i'd say subhurds
+ <zacts> what advantages would a subhurd have over a freebsd jail?

+ <zacts> ah ok
+ <braunr> in theory, subhurds can run without root privileges
+ <braunr> (but there are currently a few things that prevent it)
