Package: Bee GNU/Hurd
System name: bee
Type: non-GNU

Description:
The Bee GNU/Hurd Project.

This is a project to develop an alternative Hurd-only distribution, oriented to 
medium users and developers. The long time objetive is to provide a stable, 
coherent and complete environment, so future Hurd's new developers will feel 
confortable to work on it.

The package system is lightly similar to *BSD, there's three separate tarballs 
witch provide Root, USR and Compilation files (bee-base, bee-usr and bee-comp), 
and another tarball depending of the subpackage system desired: bee-pkgsrc, 
bee-debian or bee-portage. At this time, only pkgsrc is implemented (wich is 
intended to the the main option), but others are planned to be implemented in 
the future. We are even thinking about the posbility of have 2 or more 
subpackage system installed and working at the same time.

For the pkgsrc, we are working with the oficial tree of NetBSD, so standard 
applications will be taken from that (sending the patches to nbsd developers, 
if proceed), and Hurd specific packages will be in a separate repository.

At this time, there are no much source code to see, because the main work is to 
repackage all the apps needed by the base, usr, comp and subpackage tarballs, 
but you can find more information about this project on this URLs:

Thanks for your time.

Other Software Required:
Because this project is an entire distribution, the number of dependencies is 
too large to be listed.
