If plan9 can reach students as part of OS design course instead of linux their`s a good chance it will get more wide spread (PlanB?), this should be possible because linux is really badly conceptualized and programmed so a professor might prefer the well written code of plan9, unfortunately professors are really busy people that won't try plan9 without a good academic buzz around it - Care to write a paper ?
So all we need is a new Operating Systems textbook using Plan 9 for example code? Sounds reasonable: when I took OSs last semester, the professor was using Linux kernel code, heavily edited for readability; I could usually find the same functionality in the Plan 9 kernel code with more readable code. --Joel
