I've had a composite repo of previous attempts (well, Sape's previous attempt) at doing this (for some time) at: http://code.google.com/p/go-plan9/ I'm happy to add anyone to the committer/admin list, although my preference is to keep the main branch in sync with go and have folks attempts at conversion in sub-branches. You are of course welcome to maintain your own repo with your own effort, I just figured if everyone had a common place to see what approaches people were using we might get there faster.... -eric
