    Hurd

    Has anyone tried the Hurd kernel? What about the software that runs on it? Any experiences?

    Re:Hurd

    I've not tried it, but it seems to be a little immature still. I believe it was released in Summer '01, and by then Linux was quite established as THE free OS. Still though...I'd love to know what it's like.

    Re:Hurd

    I've used HURD with Debian before. It has awsome potential but is lacking a lot of features due to the small dev team and the complexity of the daemon system. It's worth playing with but don't expect a server/desktop ready kernel, it just can't support a lot of things we love and expect from other monolithic kernels.

    Just as well . . . it's hard enough for an idle enthusiast such as myself to keep up with just 1 or 2 cool OSes ;D
