Hi, > please excuse my ignorance, but what's the Status of GNU Mach? GNU Mach is currently the only microkernel which is supported by the Hurd. That is: If you want to run Hurd, you need Mach.

There are some problems with Mach which seem very hard or even impossible to fix without using a new microkernel. For that reason, we are looking at other microkernels. We were planning to use L4, but it seems it will be something else (either a successor of L4, or Coyotos, yet another microkernel). For more information and discussion on this, see the l4-hurd list and its archives. Thanks, Bas -- I encourage people to send encrypted e-mail (see http://www.gnupg.org).
