<h3><a href="#TOCintroduction" name="introduction">Introduction to GNU&nbsp;MIG</a></h3>
<p>
GNU&nbsp;MIG is the GNU distribution of the Mach 3.0 interface generator `MIG', as
maintained by the GNU&nbsp;Hurd developers for the GNU project.
<p>
The interface generator produces stub code from interface definition
(<code>.defs</code>) files.  The stub code makes it easy to implement
and use Mach interfaces as remote procedure calls (RPC).
<p>
You need this tool to compile the GNU&nbsp;Mach and GNU&nbsp;Hurd distributions, and to
compile the GNU C library for the Hurd.  Also, you will need it for other
software in the GNU system that uses Mach-based inter-process communication.

<H3><A HREF="#TOCstatus" NAME="status">Status of the project</A></H3>
<P>
MIG 1.3 was released in March 2002, and features compatibility with
OSF Mach.
