Brantley, I'm asking publicly because I'm betting it's a FAQ. Do you consider remote employees as a possibility, or do you require relocation? Dave On Mon, Oct 25, 2010 at 7:15 AM, Brantley Coile brant...@coraid.com wrote: hi guys, as most on this list know, coraid makes storage devices

Re: [9fans] Why not work for a company based on Plan 9?

Brantley, I apologize for my confrontational attitude. It's totally unnecessary, and I wish that I could take it all back. You certainly didn't deserve it, and the 9fans aren't deserving the noise I've caused by my stupid approach to this thread. Dave On Mon, Oct 25, 2010 at 10:25 AM,
