good to hear :-) > Anyone currently working on it? If not I would like to hack on it :) well, there already are some random/entropy translators out there, which you might want to have a look at. Have a look at the postings to this mailing list's archives (available as mbox-files from ftp://lists.gnu.org/). Furthermore maybe have a look at this project: http://ibofobi.dk/stuff/hurd-entropy/ I need to admit that I haven't looked at any of the entropy projects myself. Maybe someone else wants to chime in here ... Having said that, I just want to encourage you to have a look at translator coding. I think it's a very good starting point to get into coding for the GNU Hurd and once started out with cvsfs on my own .. If you haven't done so, you maybe want to have a look at the translator with list at the Hurd Wiki [1] to get some more inspiration :-) cheers, stesie [1] http://hurd.gnufans.org/bin/view/Hurd/TranslatorWishList -- Stefan Siegl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Bug-hurd mailing list Bug-hurd@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-hurd
