we should only have one dde.mdwn webpage.

I deleted dde.mdwn and moved all the information to
hurd/dde.mdwn.  I do not believe there are any links to [[dde]] on the wiki.

-There is an effort going on to make [[/DDE]] usable in GNU/Hurd
+/!\ DDE uses old Linux device drivers.  It is not maintained. /!\
+
+We will probably replace most of DDE with [[hurd/rump]].
+
+While we still have dde, you can use the those drivers in GNU/Hurd
 userspace.
 
 See Zheng Da's [[project page|zhengda]], as well as another [[guide]].

+# Discussion
+
+DDE essentially is a glue layer to embed Linux device drivers into another
+environement.  In the DDE case, this *other environment* is a user-space task
+-- compared to the GNU Mach kernel having a *in-kernel* Linux 2.0 device
+drivers glue code (cf. paper by Goel et al.).
