The first steps for the Hurd to run on L4 have been done. A new CVS module "hurd-l4" has been created that holds the source code that is in somewhat releasable form. So far this is the libl4 user space library for the L4 kernel and laden, the bootloader.
The next steps will be to write down the design for the user space capability system and implement some initial servers to get started.

There's a new version of mig available, with a new option intended to help
generate configuration files that rpctrace may soon be enhanced to use.
See http://mail.gnu.org/pipermail/bug-hurd/2001-June/004428.html in the list archives,
and the NEWS file (http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/hurd/mig/NEWS).
As yet, the changes are only in cvs and not yet in new tar files or debian packages.
