It depends who you ask. If you look at https://distrowatch.com/ you'll
get another answer. If you ask people, they'd tell you that Arch is in
the running.

The question is rather whether we have anybody ready to be paid for
working on GNU/Hurd. Somebody could pop out and say "I'll work for
that", but he'd need a lot of mentoring before being able to contribute,
and that alone could possibly simply just consume the money.
I would rather target the money to Guix, where there is interesting
momentum.
