-<DD>The Hurd sources have stabilized again after a short period in
-which some of the interfaces were changed to prepare support of long
-files.  All relevant filesystem and I/O interfaces have been modified
-to use 64 bit even on 32 bit systems.
-
-In light of the small and patient user base, we decided to drop
-backwards compatibility and replace the interfaces instead extending
-them.  This means that the binaries of the Hurd, the C library, and
-some other programs need to be replaced manually, all at the same
-time, followed by a reboot.

-
-People not using a binary distribution need to do a full manual
-bootstrap.  It is recommended to treat this as a cross-compilation
-case.

-<DD>Various developers of the Hurd and people interested in it will meet
-at the <A HREF="http://lsm.abul.org/">Libre Software Meeting</A> in
-Bordeaux on July 9-13.  Neal Walfield, who is working on porting the
-Hurd to the <A HREF="http://www.l4ka.org/">L4</A> microkernel, will give
-a presentation about L4, the people from
-<A HREF=" http://www.hurdfr.org/">HurdFr</A> will give an
-introduction to the Hurd, and another presentation about the Hurd will
-be given by Marcus Brinkmann.  There might be additional talks about
-the Hurd and related topics.

-<DD>We are pleased to announce version 1.3 of the GNU distribution of
-the Mach kernel, featuring advanced boot script support, support for
-large disks (>= 10GB) and an improved console.
-<P>
-This distribution is only for x86 PC machines.
-Volunteers interested in ports to other architectures are eagerly sought.
-<P>
-More <A HREF="gnumach-download.html#release">information about GNU
-Mach 1.3</A> is available on the GNU Mach web page.

-<DD>Finally, the transition from the stdio-based GLibC Application
-Binary Interface (ABI) to the libio-based GLibC ABI has been
-completed.  The Debian GNU/Hurd binary distribution has resumed
-building packages again, and everything should be back to normal.
-Note that we have also switched to <A
-HREF="http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-3.1/">GCC 3.1</A> as our default
-compiler.  Thanks to everyone who helped in making all this possible,
-and our apologize for any inconvenience we have caused you.

-<DD>The "Linux and Unix User Group Heilbronn" (in Germany) is organizing
-a Debian GNU/Hurd <A
-HREF="http://www.luug-hn.org/vortraege.html">installation party</A> at
-25 May 2002. In addition to that, Wolfgang J&auml;hrling will give a talk
-about usage of GNU/Hurd, common problems found in porting programs to
-GNU/Hurd and programming of extensions for the Hurd.  It is a public
-event, so everyone is free to show up and participate.
-<P>

-<DT>05 May 2002</DT>
-<DD>We are currently finishing the transition from a stdio-based GNU C
-Library (glibc) to a libio-based one.  This is the result of about
-five months of work we put into getting the system ready and, of
-course, the work that the glibc developers did to make glibc what it
-is.
-<P>
-This change will have various advantages, for example libio has been
-tested more extensively, as it is also used by most GNU/Linux systems
-for some time now.  However, it also means a change in the Application
-Binary Interface (ABI) of glibc, thus you will need to reinstall an
-existing Debian GNU/Hurd system.  Upgrading has not been tested at
-all, so better do not expect it to work.  Also note that you will need
-to get some of the Debian packages from <A
-HREF="ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/hurd/debian-libio/">alpha.gnu.org</A>.
-Please read the recent mailing list archives for details.
-<P>
-<B>Important Note:</B> As another temporary complication, the current
-installation tarball is available at <A
-HREF="ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/hurd/debian-staging/">a different place</A>
-than usual.

-<DD>We are pleased to announce version 1.3 of the GNU distribution of the
-Mach 3.0 interface generator `MiG'.  It may be found in the file
-<SAMP><A HREF="http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mig/mig-1.3.tar.gz">http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mig/mig-1.3.tar.gz</A></SAMP> (about 145 KB compressed).
-<P>
-Diffs from version 1.2 are in <SAMP><A HREF="http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mig/mig-1.2-1.3.diff.gz">http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mig/mig-1.2-1.3.diff.gz</A></SAMP>
-(about 6 KB compressed, 15 KB uncompressed).  Relative to version 1.2,
-version 1.3 contains only some minor fixes.
-<P>
-You need this tool to compile the GNU Mach and Hurd distributions, and
-to compile GNU libc for the Hurd.
-<P>
-Bug reports relating to this distribution should be sent to
-<A HREF="mailto:bug-hurd@gnu.org">bug-hurd@gnu.org</A>.  Requests for assistance should be made on

-<DD>There is a new mailing list called <A
-HREF="http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/hurd-devel-readers">
-Hurd-devel-readers</A>. It is the read-only version of Hurd-devel.
-<P>
-Hurd-devel is a mailing list for detailed discussions
-of design and implementation issues in the GNU Hurd; it is an internal
-low-volume list restricted to the core developers of the Hurd.  While
-the <A HREF="http://mail.gnu.org/pipermail/hurd-devel/">web-based
-archive of Hurd-devel</A> has always been public, the new mailing list
-Hurd-devel-readers provides a convenient way to follow
-the discussion of the Hurd experts.
-<P>
-If you are a recipient of Hurd-devel-readers and want
-to follow up on the discussion, please reply to the
-Bug-hurd mailing list.
