i believe it's better, but it's awful hard to retrofit everything that depends
on the format of upas/fs files. ned, acme, faces, imap4d, pop3d, etc. that
seems like
too much disruption. (but i'll bite if you rewrite all of upas :-).)
is there anything fundamentally incompatable in nfs?
ned acme faces all have the new code (in plan9ports) already.
if you don't want to use the new code, you don't have to.
it would be easy to change nfs to present the old interface too.
i am not actively working on it, just describing it so others can
if they wish.
