The GNU kernel&mdash;project name &ldquo;HURD&rdquo;&mdash;has an extremely ambitious layout that proved to be very slow and clumsy in development. Fortunately at this point Linus Torvalds's first Linux kernel was in the test phase, and when he saw the work already done by the GNU FSF he put his kernel under the GNU GPL and made it the kernel of the GNU system.
