[–] rbanffy 13y ago ↗ It's really nice to see an operating system that's based on some new ideas. I always say it's an embarrassment that the two most popular OSs today are a clone of Unix and the bastard child of VMS.

[–] rbanffy 13y ago ↗ That would be MVS. [–] abraham_s 13y ago ↗ The project leader of VMS, Dave Cutler went to MicroSoft and led the development of Windows NT.

[–] smcnally 13y ago ↗ Is it ironic that this GNU/Hurd newsletter is published as PDF? Or is that format now considered sufficiently free? [–] tailbalance 13y ago ↗ It is looks like a newsletter? It's FOSDEM presentation slides
