I wouldn't say that's necessarily true: It could be argued the existence 
and proliferation of the Linux kernel reduced the priority of his Hurd 
work, even if only to a subconscious extent. If it hadn't been for the 
Linux kernel, maybe there would have been more drive (and more 
contributors) to Hurd.
