The Google Code repository was useful to be able to use Rietveld for code reviews. Since the plan9port repository now moved to Git and uses Gerrit for code reviews, there is no need for any of the old repositories anymore. -- David du Colombier
Re: [9fans] github.com/9fans + plan9port on git
perhaps more substantially, i created a github.com/9fans organization. right now it's just plan9port, and i intended to add drawterm. if anyone else wants to host plan9-related things there, i'm happy to add more owners. Is 9vx a candidate for this? It would seem a shame to leave it in HG world? Lucio. - This email has been scanned by the MxScan Email Security System. -

Re: [9fans] github.com/9fans + plan9port on git
My priority right now is cleaning up APE’s getsockopt to support other Python scripts, a new build of Python and Mercurial—with hggit. We should have had decent getsockopt() and setsockopt() implementations for a while, both will be needed for any more advanced APE dependencies— possibly including trying to port git if you want SO_KEEPALIVE. this option, simply ignored, should do. - erik
Re: [9fans] Factotum vs SASL
Factotum (Russ may correct me) is modelled on SSH's agent. The SASL type functionality resides in the servers that use factotum, so I'd say the differences are quite significant. There is a paper on Plan 9 security that makes very interesting reading. do you have a reference for this claim? factotum both caches keys and certs (as does ssh-agent), as well as functions as a delegation agent (as i understand sasl does -- haven't used it). so it's basically just the union of roles. - erik

Details here: http://www.digi-land.net/Photo_Show.asp?InfoId=487ClassId=56Topid=53 In short, it's an Arm Cortex A7 with 512MB DDR3, 8GB NAND flash, 7 touchscreen, uSD, uUSB AB (OTG), Bluetooth, GPS, and 802.11b/g/n. this will require a new kernel, and dealing with some new devices. sounds interesting, though. - erik
Re: [9fans] Factotum vs SASL
do you have a reference for this claim? The claim that Russ first produced a utility called agent, or that the server logic resides in servers? I may have summarised the protocol poorly, but factotum is an intermediary, neither client seeking authentication, nor server validating credentials. In this respect, it does not compare with the functionality provided by SASL. Lucio. - This email has been scanned by the MxScan Email Security System. -
Re: [9fans] Pjpeg in /sys/lib/mimetype
The RFC doesn't say a word on case, which i implicitly read as case-insensitive (because how could it work otherwise). The .z and .Z extensions were used originally to distinguish packed and compressed files, respectively. MIME came later and seemingly could not distinguish between these two cases. The problem is long gone, no doubt. Lucio. - This email has been scanned by the MxScan Email Security System. -
