   Just as in a book, this page is designed to help describe the tools used to
   create this website and what methods were used to give it its look and feel.

   What we see today is the junction of two different branches: the original static
   HTML pages and the wiki pages.

Static HTML Pages

   In November 2008, the Hurd's old static web pages were merged into the wiki
   pages' repository. After a lot of cleansing work, on 2008-11-22 the joined set of
   pages was made available for serving the official GNU Hurd web appearance at
   [35]http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/.

Wiki Pages

Rev. I

   We used a particular implementation (or clone) of Wiki software called [36]TWiki.
   The wiki was reachable at http://hurd.gnufans.org/.

   A generic [37]WikiWikiWeb, or simply Wiki, is "a collaborative forum where people
   can share ideas and record any consensus reached on difficult issues, along with
   rebuttal. It changes as people come and go, as experience develops, and as
   opinions change". The TWiki software is an enhanced descendent of the original
   WikiWikiWeb.

   We used the [38]GNU Skin.

   The site began in May 2002 as one TWiki web: Hurd. This WebHome page was used as
   the front page of the whole site. We grew this site and added more TWiki webs by
   December 2002. Due to the success of the site we had to act with respect to more
   completely addressing copyright issues. More people started adding content.

   The gnufans site's administrators would eventually step back from maintenance of
   their wiki installation, so from roughly 2005 on, day-to-day tasks like
   processing new user's registrations or spam removal would not be done in a timely
   fashion anymore. In July 2006, the [39]slow burial of the Hurd Wiki was
   announced.

Rev. II

   Considering this [40]from April 2006 on already, on 2007-08-12 the conversion of
   the TWiki content to a format usable by [41]ikiwiki was finally finished. Read
   [42]about the twiki to ikiwiki conversion.

   This wiki instance was running distributed over two GNU/Hurd machines,
   [43]flubber (Git repository) and [44]snubber (web server), both hosted by Barry
   deFreese.

   The wiki's content also provides that of the official GNU Hurd pages,
   [45]http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/.

Rev. III

   As of early 2013, both flubber and snubber's duties are [46]taken over by Richard
   Braun's [47]darnassus.
