I figured a state-of-the-Hurd report would be in order, so here's one
from my perspective:
 
* Thomas and I will soon (i.e. before the year 2000) be releasing a
  joint Debian/GNU snapshot of the Hurd. This will be the first time
  that the Debian package and the Hurd source snapshot will be totally
  in sync, and the Debian packaging rules will be part of the official
  Hurd distribution.
 
  The idea is that, in the future, whoever releases a Hurd source
  snapshot will upload corresponding binaries to Debian (and vice
  versa). This'll eliminate version skew between bug reports filed
  against the Debian packages, and what's actually in the Hurd CVS.
