+I am pleased to announce version 1.1.1 of the GNU distribution of the
+Mach kernel. It may be found in the file (about 254 MB compressed)
+ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/gnumach-1.1.1.tar.gz.
+
+Diffs from version 1.0 of this distribution are avaiable at
+ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/gnumach-1.0-1.1.1.diff (42 KB
+uncompressed).
+
+Version 1.1 had some minor accidental problems and is being removed in
+favor of this minor update.
+
+This is a bug-fixing release; the only new feature over version 1.0 is
+the --enable-kdb configure option which has been added to turn on
+kernel debugging support.
+
+Several bugs have been fixed in this distribution, particularly
+relating to cross-compilation support.
+
+This distribution is only for i386, i486, i586 (pentium), and i686
+(sexium [pentium pro]) processors on PC-AT compatible machines.
+Volunteers interested in ports to other architectures are eagerly
+sought.
+
+Most ethernet cards and disk controllers are supported by this kernel;
+ones for which Linux drivers exist can be ported easily. Non-network
+devices for which BSD drivers exist can be ported with a little
+effort, but not much.
+
+Bug reports relating to this distribution should be sent to
+bug-hurd@prep.ai.mit.edu. Requests for assistance should be made on
+help-hurd@prep.ai.mit.edu.
