if its goin to be a gnu/os, then why not stick with a gnu microkernal,

In fact, the Hurd on top of L4 microkernel isnt completly dead yet, it's just stalled. Indeed if Coyotos will be build with successful to run Hurd on top of it, L4-Hurd could be considered dead. Currently we can use L4-Hurd as an 'plan B' if Coyotos fail.
