So...in the hope that this is helpful I created an overview of all of
current wip-hurd-vm.

Legend (in order of merge'ability / is there a convention for this?):

  [L] Ludo
   g  good to go LGTM'd
   t  trivial (self-LGTM :-)
   .  direct dependency of/partially superseded by a LGTM

      ack or review needed
   !  troublesome
