Re: [Savannah-hackers] savannah.gnu.org: submission of The GNU HURD on Alpha

[Loic Dachary]

        Hi,

        That may be a silly question but : did you coordinate with the 
hurd people ? Maybe they can grant you access to their CVS tree for this
purpose ? I'm not trying to say that it is required, I would just like
to make sure this solution was not overlooked.

        Thanks in advance,
