# Multiserver, Microkernel-Based Operating Systems Devroom
[Announcement](https://lists.fosdem.org/pipermail/microkernel-devroom/2012-October/000054.html).
Talk proposal:
title: Latest news about GNU/Hurd
Full name: Samuel Thibault
Short abstract:
GNU/Hurd has a long-term vaporware reputation. Development has indeed been
relatively dormant for some time, but recent regain of interest has brought
interesting improvements, to the point that there will be a non-official release
of the GNU/Hurd variant of Debian Wheezy.
This talk will present to GNU/Hurd in general and its "translator" mechanism
which provides strong flexibility to users and administrators, as well as demo
it live. The subhurd/neighborhurd mechanism, a very natural way to provide
virtualization container support on GNU/Hurd, will also be presented. It will
also present recent developments, notably in terms of DDE device drivers run as
userland processes, and discuss about maintenance of DDE.
Duration:
30m, 45m?
