Sporadic efforts by numerous individuals have been made to keep the information on this site current. The hope that the primary development team would make this a canonical source has not been fulfilled. While some of the information and links here are still valid, unfortunately much is not.

-This site focuses on providing a user-centric &amp; update-able (hopefully the most current) information possible regarding the status and development of the GNU project's GNU operating system. There are many areas to comment on the core component (the Hurd) and other very closely related but distinct projects. This is an all volunteer effort intended to supplement the <a href="http://hurd.gnu.org" target="_top">official Hurd site</a>. If you see an error <strong>please</strong> fix it! It is a collaboration effort powered by TWiki software installed in May, 2002.

In an ideal Wiki, everyone is equal and shares equal rights, liberties, responsibilities and common sense. Please respect the guidelines described in the <a href="TWiki/GoodStyle">Good&nbsp;Style</a> topic and please try to match the "tone" of your topics and edits with the existing topics. If we all pull in the same direction the site will be more useful for everyone, especially for our own use. No account is necessary for <strong>browsing</strong>. <em>We prefer that you create your own <a href="Main/TWikiUsers">user account</a> (free, relatively painless process) using the <a href="TWiki/TWikiRegistration">TWiki&nbsp;Registration</a> page when <strong>contributing</strong>.</em> You may also use the <a href="Main/TWikiGuest">TWiki&nbsp;Guest</a> account when contributing.

-TWiki webs (very poor terminology) are similar to "Chapters" in a book. The WebMenu on the left side holds references to these "webs" and "topics" available. Each "web" has a different color.

The Main and TWiki webs are for system use. The <a href="Main/HurdGnuFansOrg">Main</a> web primarily contains information about the <a href="Main/TWikiUsers">registered users</a> of our site. The <a href="TWiki/WebHome">TWiki</a> web primarily contains documentation about the TWiki software.
<p />
Here are some more Wiki conventions and terminology that you will see again. Each HTML page is called a topic. Each topic has a special "wiki name". <a href="TWiki/WikiWord">Wiki&nbsp;Words</a> are assumed to be topics in the current "web" unless preceded by the name of a "web" and a period. For example the previous link can also be denoted as <a href="TWiki/WikiWord">TWiki.Wiki&nbsp;Words</a>. A simplified &amp; interpreted markup is used for content which can include HTML code. It sounds far more complex than it is in practical use, it's just a little different Most that understand the differences find contribution very very simple and painless.
<p />
Further information about this site and how it was created can be found in the <a href="Main/TWikiColophon">TWiki&nbsp;Colophon</a>. Our site runs the custom-developed GNU skin by default. There is a <a href="Main/HurdGnuFansOrgDiscuss">topic</a> for discussion about the contents of this specific page as well.
