What's new
- 08 March 2002
- 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
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mig/mig-1.3.tar.gz (about 145 KB compressed).
Diffs from version 1.2 are in ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mig/mig-1.2-1.3.diff.gz (about 6 KB compressed, 15 KB uncompressed). Relative to version 1.2, version 1.3 contains only some minor fixes.
You need this tool to compile the GNU Mach and Hurd distributions, and to compile GNU libc for the Hurd.
Bug reports relating to this distribution should be sent to bug-hurd@gnu.org. Requests for assistance should be made on help-hurd@gnu.org.
The md5sum checksum for this distibution is:

- 03 March 2002
- There is a new mailing list called Hurd-devel-readers. It is the read-only version of Hurd-devel.
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 web-based archive of Hurd-devel has always been public, the new mailing list Hurd-devel-readers provides a convenient way to follow the discussion of the Hurd experts.
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.

The GNU Hurd is the GNU project's replacement for the Unix kernel. The Hurd is a collection of servers that run on the Mach microkernel to implement file systems, network protocols, file access control, and other features that are implemented by the Unix kernel or similar kernels (such as Linux).
