this is both good news.. but also sad news, I almost certainly won't be 
able to make it. I'm tight on schedule with "real" work which sadly 
doesn't involve much open source. I'll check the ticket prices and 
availabilities though.

I'm amazed and happy that somebody follows that and that you like what 
you see :)
I can, in case somebody goes there, provide him with slides of the 
current status, latest progres, short and longer term goals.

I'd lave to meed the GNU Hurd guys too :) Since I can't promise even to 
get there, I can't promise a talk either. Sorry.

We share that spirit. Both the GNUstep project (it is GNU!) and the GAP 
project (even if it is hosted on non-gnu, because some applications are 
not FSF assigned).

After all, who chould be so crazy to regularly test GNUstep on GNU/Hurd?
