-> This month 
+> This month Samuel Thibault got the necessary Xen patches committed 
+> into the unstable tree of Xen for the 4.0 release, 
+> so GNU Mach now officially [has Xen domU support](http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2009-12/msg00058.html)
+> (GNU Mach instead of GNU Hurd, because 
+> no changes were needed in the Hurd part). So from 4.0 on you'll be able 
+> to run the GNU Hurd in a default Xen system. 
 > 
-> Also 
+> Also the ddekit port of Zheng Da now 
+> [passes the first tests](http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2009-12/msg00060.html), 
+> bringing us the first steps towards updated drivers. 
 > 
-> Additionally
+> Additionally Thomas Schwinge started the planning for 
+> [a GNU Hurd meeting at FOSDEM](http://www.thomas.schwinge.homeip.net/hurd-web/community/meetings/fosdem_2010.html]
+> on February 6th/7th 2010 at the Université Libre de Bruxelles.
+> 
+> And some questions from Tim Kack from the view of a GNUstep developer 
+> spawned an extensive discussion about 
+> [SMP on the Hurd](http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2009-12/msg00089.html).
