Hi, I just wrote and pushed the news entry for 2009-11-30 (sorry for being late).
I'm sure I missed something important this month (had my exams and celebrated them...), so please have a look: A month of the Hurd: *network in userspace* and *grub2 from hurd*. > This month Zheng Da ported the pcnet32 driver into user space > and did some preliminary > [performance tests](http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug- hurd/2009-11/msg00144.html). > The test results were mostly on par with the in-kernel driver, so they show > that moving networking on the Hurd into user space can be done > without losing (much) performance. > > Also thanks to Samuel Thibault, the latest grub2 package (1.97+20091125-1) > [supports native installation](http://lists.debian.org/debian- hurd/2009/11/msg00095.html) > from GNU/Hurd itself. Grub was originally designed > [to allow booting of GNU/Hurd systems] (http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#History), > so this step brings it closer to its original purpose again. Best wishes, Arne
