IRC, freenode, #hurd, 2011-07-09
<antrik> gnu_srs1: regarding your question why people aren't interested in
workin on Hurd: Eric Raymond explains it pretty well in his famous
"Cathedral and Bazaar" paper
<antrik> people are more likely to work on something that *almost* works
for them, and where they only have to fill in a few missing bits
<antrik> the Hurd doesn't almost work for anyone
<antrik> actually, you should probably reread the whole paper. it's
essentially an analysis why the Hurd failed compared to Linux
