hurd-i386 doesn't have testing, so the release is a snapshot of
sid/unstable *only*.

While at the time of the Wheezy release testing and unstable were
certainly closer than any other time in development, sid at the time of
snapshot had various library and apps upgrades (for example, R at
version 2.15 in Wheezy while it was already at 3.0 in sid). Thus, it
would be more correct to say it is based on Sid.

- "configuration information" should point to [1]
- also append "to the documentation" (pointing at [2])
- "FAQ" should point to [3]
[1] http://www.debian.org/ports/hurd/hurd-install
[2] http://www.debian.org/ports/hurd/hurd-doc
[3] http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/faq.html

"a lot of patches" is surely not true (and we had the a similar amount
also in non-freeze period), and a number of those won't give actually
much.
With the above changes and Michael Banck's note that it is a "Debian
GNU/Hurd port release", it'd be good IMHO.
