Hi James,
it would be much better for everyone, including you,
if you'd just help to improve Debian GNU/Hurd. There is
enough room for everyone in this project. So if you are not
trying to do something spectacular different from Debian,
that's my advice.

On X, I am not going to say anything. It took me a couple of days
to figure it out myself, and I sent the patches back to the X 
maintainers and uploaded binary packages so this work doesn't need
to be duplicated. Check the mailing list archive for more info.

Thanks,
Marcus
