Hi all,

There's a version of Arch that uses the HURD kernel, called Arch Hurd.

This is really cool, coz HURD was a running joke in the industry for
vaporware, but now they actually have distors that use it!

Has anyone checked out Arch Hurd?

For those who haven't heard, Hurd was supposed to be the kernel of the GNU
OS, but it never came to fruition, and Linux became more popular. HURD's
been in the making since 1984, so it's a 25 year old project finally seeing
daylight ;)
