I am not one of the people testing it. RMS is still running Debian on his
laptop :-)

What I would hope is that the HURD would support the 86open standard
(essentially GNU LIBC with a cleaner substitute for ioctl()), and that
a large number of Debian binary packages would run on all 86open platforms,
including SCO and so on. We're going to have to get a lot farther with 86open
before that happens.

        Thanks

        Bruce
