+Hurd port to L4 (Hurd/L4)?"]]
+
+There is an ongoing effort to port the Hurd to the L4 microkernel family. This
+will take time and the port is not in a releasable state -- this is why there
+is no information about the L4 port on the website for the Hurd project
+<http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd> other than this FAQ entry.
+
+The development of Hurd/L4 is being done in the `hurd-l4` module of the Hurd
+CVS repository. The `doc` directory contains a design document that is worth
+reading for anyone who wishes to learn more about Hurd/L4. If you wish to
+follow the development or contribute patches to Hurd/L4, please subscribe to
+the [[mailing_lists/l4-hurd]] mailing list.
