<H3><A HREF="#TOCwhat" NAME="what">The GNU Hurd on top of the L4 microkernel</A></H3>
<P>
The GNU Hurd on top of the L4 microkernel is an on-going effort to
port the Hurd system to the <A
HREF="http://www.l4ka.org">L4Ka::Pistachio microkernel</A>.

This project is not released yet.  The only way to find out more about
it is to browse the source code, read what little documentation there
is, and talk to the participants.


<H3><A HREF="#TOCdocs" NAME="docs">Documentation</A></H3>
<P>
In the CVS Repository is a tex document that describes some of our
design ideas.  This document is not always up to date, nor is it
complete.  But it describes a lot of the core ideas in some detail. 


<H3><A HREF="#TOCcvs" NAME="cvs">CVS repository</A></H3>
<P>
The Hurd-on-L4 source code is managed in the version control system <A
HREF="/software/cvs/cvs.html">CVS</A>.  You can check out the CVS
repository through anonymous CVS over SSH with the following
instruction set.  When prompted for a password for <I>anoncvs</I>,
simply press the Enter key.

<P>
Source tree:
<SAMP>export CVS_RSH="ssh"</SAMP><BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
<SAMP>cvs -z3 -d:ext:anoncvs@savannah.gnu.org:/cvsroot/hurd co hurd-l4</SAMP>

<P>Updates from within the module's directory do not need the -d parameter.

<P>For the full details, read the <A
href="https://savannah.gnu.org/cvs/?group=hurd">savannah</A> page.


<H3><A HREF="#TOCcvsweb" NAME="cvsweb">Browsing the code</A></H3>
<P>
You can also browse the <A
HREF="http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/~checkout~/hurd/hurd-l4/">CVS
repository of the Hurd-on-L4</A> with your web browser.  The web pages are
generated dynamically at the time you request them and are always up
to date.


<H3><A HREF="#TOCmail" NAME="mail">Mailing lists</A></H3>
<P>
If you have questions about the Hurd-on-L4 you can send an e-mail to
the <A
HREF="http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/l4-hurd">L4-Hurd</A> <A
HREF="mailto:l4-hurd@gnu.org">&lt;l4-hurd@gnu.org&gt;</A> mailing
list.


<H3><A HREF="#TOCirc" NAME="irc">Internet relay chat</A></H3>
<P>
The GNU Project uses
<A HREF="http://www.freenode.net/">Freenode</A> as its official IRC
network.  The network of IRC servers can be accessed through
<SAMP>irc.gnu.org</SAMP>.  The channel <SAMP>#hurd-l4</SAMP> is
dedicated to the Hurd-on-L4.  You can find other users and developers
interested in the Hurd on L4 there and chat with them in real time.
