+GNU MIG is the GNU distribution of the
+[[Mach_3.0_interface_generator_*MIG*|mig]], as maintained by the GNU Hurd
+developers for the GNU project.
+
+You need this tool to compile the GNU Mach and GNU Hurd distributions, and to
+compile the GNU C library for the Hurd. Also, you will need it for other
+software in the GNU system that uses Mach-based
+[[inter-process_communication|ipc]].
+
+GNU MIG is fully compatible with [[OSF_MIG|mig]].
+
+Like its predecessor, it can only generate C code, that has to be compiled and
+linked to client and server programs respectively ([[!taglink
+open_issue_mig]]).
