This is wrong grammer I believe: "as well" should go at the end -- or
just use "also" instead, which would be fine in that place :-)

BTW, the plug at the end sounds rather pathetic IHMO... But perhaps
that's just me ;-)

Not sure such a strict policy is really useful?

In my understanding the major point of the regular news is showing
people that things are moving in the Hurd world -- which doesn't always
have to be manifested in patches I'd say...

Well, perhaps I'm thinking "kernel traffic" too much here.
