From the STS web-site: Why Install and Use Debian GNU/Hurd Now?
To support free software in general and the development of GNU/Hurd in particular. Even those who are neither developers nor computer programmers can help the development of GNU/Hurd by using it, submitting bug-reports and trying out new packages when they are released.
GNU/Hurd has the potential to be the best computer Operating System in the world - better than GNU/Linux IMHO - and the more people who install it, use it and aid its development, the sooner this will happen.
