I wouldn’t allow the passive-aggressive mood that surfaces here from time to time to turn me off the project.
That said, I’m fascinated by how often (and how quickly) some threads devolve into “there is no point in doing that” or “we don’t need those modern contraptions” arguments - reminds me a lot of some of the hard boiled academia types I used to work with back when VMS started losing ground. As much as some folk here are not exactly fond of various nuances of modern tech (from Linux to X to git, etc.), I don’t think there’s any need for dissing personal efforts to use or improve various aspects of Plan9 (including, horror of horrors, making the user land a bit more modern and usable, or at least more accessible to mainstream users). I’m just going to fetch my vitriol wiper now.
