+In early 2024, Sergey Bugaev hacked together a Hurd OS running via
+Alpine; he just replaced musl and Linux with glibc and the Hurd. His
+goal was to boot the Hurd with busybox and OpenRC (one can install
+bash, if one wishes). You can [read the annoucement
+email](https://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-hurd/2024-01/msg00180.html). The
+source code is [here](https://github.com/bugaevc/aports/).
+
+He doesn't want to call it Alpine Hurd, because upstream Alpine is not
+the biggest fan of GNU. It has not seen a ton of activity lately, but
+anyone is free to revive it.
