As mostly a clone of Zcash that will tap into ethereum and counterparty technology, it does not need a technological white paper to introduce anything new. The primary differences are that it's not funded by (and funding via 20% mining fees) an American private company like Zcash's Zerocoin Electric Coin Company, so it's more of an open source project that can't be shut down or influenced like Zcash's company (although Zcash can continue to live as open source without the company). "HUSH" refers to it making messages on the chain anonymous like the coins. With secure messaging you can encrypt messages for "privacy", but without HUSH, a 3rd party can always see who and when 2 parties (or IP addresses) are communicating even if they can't read what the messages are. So HUSH adds anonymity to private messages. You can send a message and no one can connect you and the receiver. Spies have needed this technology forever and have several workarounds such as broadcasting numeric codes on shortwave radio, which is still being done today. For long messages, the only message might be a link and key to an anonymous encrypted document on TOR or the IPFS. Buyers and sellers using the coin may want to be able to attach messages that have the same privacy + anonymity. There is a road map on the myhush.org web site with a link to the bitcointalk announcements.
Yes, exactly the same. In fact you have to be careful not to mine one of the coins to the other coin's address. If you're mining Zcash already, it's super easy. Except that you can't mine directly to Cryptopia for some reason. It's hit or miss. You have to have your own wallet.

Thanks for the explanation! I'll dig deeper in this, I guess it is in the same way mined than zcash?
