 ==============================
 
-Q0.  Where can I get the Unofficial GNU Hurd FAQ?
-
-The Unofficial Hurd FAQ (what you are reading now) is occasionally
-posted to the USENET newsgroup, gnu.misc.discuss.  It is also
-available from
-
-   http://www.enci.ucalgary.ca/~gord/hurd/hurd-faq.txt  (Broken Link ?)
-
-If you don't have WWW access, you may send mail to me, Gordon
-Matzigkeit <gord@enci.ucalgary.ca> with a subject line that reads:
-
-   Subject: send hurd-faq
-
-You should receive a PGP-signed copy of the current version of this
-document in a matter of minutes.
-
-
-Q2.  Where can I get a copy?
-
-To put it simply, you can't.  It is still under development (by
-Michael Bushnell, Roland McGrath and Miles Bader).  It is almost, but
-not quite, at the point where you can do real work on it.  Keep your
-fingers crossed.
-
-Some people have actually bootstrapped it, but the work is not easy,
-and the current snapshot won't work until a new multiserver boot
-mechanism is made.
-
-If you *really* want to try it, beware that it is still pre-alpha
-code, and that it will likely crash on you.  See Trent Fisher's Hurd
-pages (under question 5) for the latest information.
-
-
-Q3.  Why bother writing a new OS when we have Linux and 386/BSD?
-
-For one thing, Linux and BSD don't scale well.  Hardware designers are
-shifting more and more toward multiprocessor machines for performance,
-and standard Unix kernels do not provide much multiprocessor support.
-The Hurd, on the other hand, runs on top of the Mach 3.0 micro-kernel
-[[1]] from CMU.  Mach was designed precisely for multiprocessing
-machines, so its portability should carry over nicely to the Hurd.
-
-In addition, the Hurd will be considerably more flexible and robust
-than generic Unix.  Wherever possible, Unix kernel features have been
-moved into unprivileged space.  Once there, anyone who desires can
-develop custom replacements for them.  Users will be able to write and
-use their own file systems, their own `exec' servers, or their own
-network protocols if they like, all without disturbing other users.
-
-The Linux kernel has now been modified to allow user-level file
-systems, so there is proof that people will actually use features such
-as these.  It will be much easier to do under the Hurd, however,
-because the Hurd is almost entirely run in user space and because the
-various servers are designed for this sort of modification.
-

 Q4.  What's all this about Mach 3.0 (and Mach 4.0)?
 
 As mentioned above, Mach is a micro-kernel, written at Carnegie Mellon
