If the Hurd provides more power and/or better security, that won't
directly change the user experience. However, programmers and
sysadmins will take advantage of them, and the result will be
better user experience too.
This is true, but why put so much effort into creating a new kernel
when one can use Solaris, Linux, etc and achive the same goal much
eaiser and faster?
The Hurd has a more powerful design, and we hope this can provide
benefits that those other systems could not achieve without a similar
redesign.
If that doesn't work, then the Hurd won't be a success.
