A question about the Hurd
Is the Hurd going to be organized as a kernel which presents one or more
virtual machines, each of which may operate one of various single- or
multiple-session single-user servers (appearing to be an operating system
to the user)?
[diagram of this idea below]

--------- --------- ---------
| virtual | | virtual | | virtual |
| machine | | machine | | machine |
--------- --------- ---------
| ... | ... | ... <-- perhaps multiple
user user user users or sessions
sessions per virtual
machine
Is this about right?
