From e7d43cc3dc8c57138d6c4923a3b1cdb8d970a349 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Schwinge Date: Wed, 22 May 2013 00:45:30 +0200 Subject: An Incomplete GNU Hurd Timeline. Per consensus from yesterday night's IRC discussion, move this from the Debian GNU/Hurd 2013 page to the history page. Also, some light editing. --- contributing/web_pages/news/hurd_2013.mdwn | 20 +++----------------- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-) (limited to 'contributing') diff --git a/contributing/web_pages/news/hurd_2013.mdwn b/contributing/web_pages/news/hurd_2013.mdwn index 1c20be8b..548869c5 100644 --- a/contributing/web_pages/news/hurd_2013.mdwn +++ b/contributing/web_pages/news/hurd_2013.mdwn @@ -49,24 +49,10 @@ Due to the very small number of developers, our progress of the project has not been as fast as other successful operating systems, but we believe to have reached [[a very decent state|hurd/status]], even with our limited resources. -We would like to thank all the people who have worked on GNU/Hurd over the past -decades.
