Hi, > I want to contribute to the GNU Hurd Project and > read the guide pages on the official site. Good! The best way to get started is to first use the Hurd VM image. Then I’d suggest getting the sources and setting up a development environment. This isn’t as clear as it should be due to th

Hi,  I'm sorry for a accidently hitting of the space bar causes a draft email to be sent.  I want to contribute to the GNU Hurd Project and read the guide pages on the official site. But it seems out-dated since in the last year I read it too and items listed on that page seems unchanged after one
