I have been lurking on the list for a while, and I maintain a mixture of various OSs (hoping to add OSX soon), but I have always been interested in understanding kernel development/manipulation. Now, mind you, I am still a newb to *nix environments (I am not a hard core app developer yet.. ) but in a continuing discussion on /. I came across mention of Hurd. What I thought was interesting is that the OSX uses the Mach kernel, doesn't it? So does that mean that Hurd itself could be a viable replacement to the various Linux distros out there? Of course software has not been ported to it yet most likely, but what do you think? On a side note, the recursive Acronym for Hurd is just hilarious..
