+    <zacts> so once I have written my first translators, and really understand
+      that, what kinds of projects would you recommend to an operating
+      systems/hurd newbie.
+    <zacts> I am reading the minix book now as I have it, but I'm waiting on
+      getting the modern operating systems book by the same author.
+    <zacts> I was initially going to start working on minix, but their focus
+      seems to be on embedded, and I want to work on a system that is more
+      general purpose, and I like the philosophy of freedom surrounding the
+      hurd.
+    <zacts> I like how the hurd design allows more freedom for users of the
+      operating system, but I would also like to incorporate ideas from minix
+      on the hurd. mainly, rebootless updates of servers/translators.
+    <neal> then you should study how translators work
+    <neal> how ipc works
+    <neal> and understand exactly what state is stored where
