I have always thought that it could be convenient to have plan 9 devices as independent unix programs. This project aims to do that with a wsys device (draw, keyboard, mouse). There's no reason the same couldn't be done with drawterm's audio or 9vx's network device, for example.
We still have to solve the problem of serving 9p. I'm not sure yet of the convenience of using p9p's 9pserve over the drawterm approach, but i hope to have an answer sooner or later. We can start thinking about other devices then. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Plan 9 Google Summer of Code" group.
