Hello! I am interested in helping you write the documentation for The GNU Hurd.
I am a pre graduate student and it's going to be my project for a class. I would be more than happy to contribute!
Hello!
There's several ways that you could help.
The wiki would be a pretty great place to start! And relatively easy.
This web page gives an overview about how to contribute to the online
wiki.
https://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/contributing/web_pages.html
Send your patches to bug-***@gnu.org. No one uses the web-hurd mailing
list.
Some things you could do:
https://notabug.org/jbranso/cheatsheets/src/master/hurd.org#wiki
https://notabug.org/jbranso/cheatsheets/src/master/hurd.org#copyread-the-arch-hurd-installation-page-somewhere--its-got-lots-of-good-details
I made a video a while ago showing you how to edit the wiki:
You might also look into editing the official Hurd documentation.
https://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/doc/hurd_toc.html#SEC_Contents
You could try to change this section:
https://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/doc/hurd_4.html#SEC18
The Hurd no longer uses the libthreads. Instead we use libpthreads.
Maybe my online cheatsheet would be helpful to try to understand some
hurd concepts:
