This made me check status of Gnu Hurd. I had forgotten that it was even a project, not surprising though as when I checked they state that even after about 15 years of development there is still no stable version . . . too bad

Debian Gnu/HURD is really easy to get going and actually 100% usable. I would say that HURD and Plan9 are the only two genuinely interesting operating systems in today's major line up. Everything else is just better or worse implementations of virtually the same paradigms and it all is mostly unchanged since the 1970s.
