New versions released of GNU Hurd, GNU Mach, GNU MIG!

There's a lot of passive hate for the Hurd out there, but I think this is mostly from people either criticizing the time it's taken to deliver (which is fair, though you can run it... just not as much as you'd like :)), but weirdly there are also people who seem to be criticizing the architecture, which I don't understand really. IMO, the Hurd design is great, and if we were all able to run it today, we'd probably be in a lot less trouble than we are today. There would be no need for kdbus since the Hurd's design centers around safe and asynchronous IPC, we'd have a capability security based model would increase safety and make a lot of the "oh no how do I isolate things" concerns greatly reduced, and other things. The systemd debate wouldn't be happening, because componentized daemons for many of these systems would already be baked into the OS design.

In an alternate universe, these things are true. In the meanwhile, GNU Hurd is still to this day an adventurous design. I wish it the best!
