+<p>Debian GNU/Hurd 2023 <em>released</em>!</p>
+
+<p>It is with huge pleasure that the Debian GNU/Hurd team announces the
+<strong>release of Debian GNU/Hurd 2023</strong>. <br />
+This is a snapshot of Debian "sid" at the time of the stable Debian
+"Bookworm" release (June 2023), so it is mostly based on the same sources. It is <em>not</em> an
+official Debian release, but it is an official Debian GNU/Hurd port release.</p>
+
+<p>The installation ISO images can be downloaded from
+<a href="https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/ports/12.0/hurd-i386/">cdimage</a>
+in the NETINST and netboot Debian flavors. Besides the friendly
+Debian installer, a pre-installed disk image is also available, making it even easier to try
+Debian GNU/Hurd. The easiest way to run it is
+<a href="https://www.debian.org/ports/hurd/hurd-install">inside a VM such as qemu</a></p>
+
+<p>Debian GNU/Hurd is currently available for the i386 architecture with about
+65% of the Debian archive, and more to come!</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>APIC, SMP, and 64bit support was improved a lot: they now do boot a complete
+Debian system, but some bugs remain to be fixed.</li>
+<li>The rump-based userland disk driver seems to be working fine now, we can now boot
+a system without any Linux driver in the mach kernel: mach then only drives the CPU,
+memory, clock and irqs!</li>
+<li>Many fixes, including some important security fixes.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>Please make sure to read the
+<a href="https://www.debian.org/ports/hurd/hurd-install">configuration information</a>,
+the <a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/faq.html">FAQ</a> (or <a href="http://darnassus.sceen.net/~hurd-web/faq/">its latest version</a>),
+and the <a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/hurd/documentation/translator_primer.html">translator primer</a>
+to get a grasp of the great features of GNU/Hurd.</p>
+
+<p>We would like to thank all the people who have worked on GNU/Hurd <a
+href=https://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/history.html>in the past</a>.
+There were not many people at any given time (and still not many people
+today, please <a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/contributing.html">join</a>!), but in the end a lot of people have
+contributed one way or the other. <strong>Thanks everybody!</strong></p>
