<DT>23 March 2002</DT>
<DD>Added <A HREF="/software/hurd/hacking-guide/hhg.html">The Hurd
Hacking Guide</A> to the documentation section.  Thanks to Wolfgang
J&auml;hrling for providing this introduction into GNU/Hurd and Mach
programming!
<P>

<DT>08 March 2002</DT>
<DD>We are pleased to announce version 1.3 of the GNU distribution of the
Mach 3.0 interface generator `MiG'.  It may be found in the file
<SAMP><A HREF="ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mig/mig-1.3.tar.gz">ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mig/mig-1.3.tar.gz</A></SAMP> (about 145 KB compressed).
<P>
Diffs from version 1.2 are in <SAMP><A HREF="ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mig/mig-1.2-1.3.diff.gz">ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mig/mig-1.2-1.3.diff.gz</A></SAMP>
(about 6 KB compressed, 15 KB uncompressed).  Relative to version 1.2,
version 1.3 contains only some minor fixes.
<P>
You need this tool to compile the GNU Mach and Hurd distributions, and
to compile GNU libc for the Hurd.
<P>
Bug reports relating to this distribution should be sent to
<A HREF="mailto:bug-hurd@gnu.org">bug-hurd@gnu.org</A>.  Requests for assistance should be made on
<A HREF="mailto:help-hurd@gnu.org">help-hurd@gnu.org</A>.

<P>
<DT>03 March 2002</DT>
<DD>There is a new mailing list called <A
HREF="http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/hurd-devel-readers">
Hurd-devel-readers</A>. It is the read-only version of Hurd-devel.
<P>
Hurd-devel is a mailing list for detailed discussions
of design and implementation issues in the GNU Hurd; it is an internal
low-volume list restricted to the core developers of the Hurd.  While
the <A HREF="http://mail.gnu.org/pipermail/hurd-devel/">web-based
archive of Hurd-devel</A> has always been public, the new mailing list
Hurd-devel-readers provides a convenient way to follow
the discussion of the Hurd experts.
<P>
If you are a recipient of Hurd-devel-readers and want
to follow up on the discussion, please reply to the
Bug-hurd mailing list.
<DT>18 February 2002</DT>
<DD>Pro-Linux has published a <A
HREF="http://www.pl-berichte.de/berichte/hurd/hurd-status/">GNU/Hurd
status report</A> (in German).  They will infrequently publish updates
in the future.
<P>
<DT>19 January 2002</DT>
<DD>The Toronto Hurd User Group meets: The University of Waterloo
Computer Science Club will be hosting a talk on the Hurd and the
Debian GNU/Hurd operating system.  There will also be a gpg keysigning
and installfest for GNU/Hurd following the talk.  All are welcome, and
gpg keys are not required.

The GNU Hurd is the GNU project's replacement for the Unix kernel.
The Hurd is a collection of servers that run on the Mach microkernel
to implement file systems, network protocols, file access control, and
other features that are implemented by the Unix kernel or similar
kernels (such as Linux).
