Hi guys,
Well, Stallman did visit our college, and delivered his speech
on software patents. But it was the session after that that I enjoyed.
It was a technical session, explaining the HURD, the kernel of the GNU.
It's still under development, and boy, isn't it wonderful!!! Even Linus
Torvalds admits that this multiserver-microkernel model will replace his
monolithic kernel model eventually. This one has a much smaller memory
footprint, implements a high level of abstraction, so that it can be
extended easily, has revolutionary new ideas, one of which is called a
translator.
Well guys, I had the opportunity to interact with one of the top
ten hackers in my country (India). He works for the GNU. This was an
experience I will never forget!!!
Regards,
Steve Fernandez.
