> This month saw the successful completion of the Google Summer of Code 2009,
> for which [[Sergiu Ivanov|scolobb]] created a
> [[unionmount_translator|hurd/translator/unionmount]].
> His work allows you to simply union one directory or translator into another one,
> so you see the files of both of them side by side.
>
> He was mentored by Olaf Buddenhagen and both are now working on polishing the code
> and extending the namespace based translator selection ([[hurd/translator/nsmux]]) which allows you to
> read a node with a selected translator by simply appending `,,<translator>` to its name.

> That aside, we saw the usual steady rate of enhancement discussions, as well
> as bugs getting fixed: X server crashing, preventing that GCC versions after
> 4.2 optimize too much, etc.
