The Story of GNU/Hurd

The story of GNU/Hurd is a 39 year journey through building something new, that has features that were only "dreamed" about. It is/was an ambitious project whose roots came from the need to develop a free kernel that could be included with the rest of the GNU software stack (compilers, linkers, debuggers, editors and many utilities). Linux shows up and the projects original goals were met by this single event in 1991. Do we still need GNU/Hurd? Can it be completed? Should it be scrapped? That's what this video is about today.
