Hello and welcome to another Qoth! Here's what's been happening in Q2 of 2026! Joshua Branson added a pretty cool svg logo for our ethernet multiplexor . He built that image with Inkscape whilst using a Hurd laptop (Thinkpad 420) running on real iron! The Hurd wiki could certainly use more artwork. Perhaps you have a favorite Hurd translator that you believes needs some artwork! Sergey Bugaev announced his WIP 9pfs ( source code ), and it has a wiki page ! He writes: Some years ago, I experimented with implementing a 9P translator for the Hurd.
