Oh yeah - someone kindly hosted the current draft (v. 0.2) here:

Attempting new plan9 installation, seeing this sort of thing going on:

It doesn't. But somebody needs to sign up to get the proceedings
printed,
Wow confusing and a little disappointing, but not unheard of :-)

I do not like Boston as a destination. The last four times I've travelled
there, or through there, I've been stuck overnight in the airport. As far as
I'm concerned, tread carefully when flying through Logan. Boston itself can be
enjoyable, and the surrounding pirtions of the North East are n

I'm vaguely affiliated with MIT still via their student computing group (SIPB).
We've looked into convention/event support at MIT before, and the bottom
line is that such things really need a professor or department head as a

Hello,
I want to let a freshly installed Plan 9 box use NTP but can't get it
to work.

but the (newer) guruplug does not. it requires the "guruplug jtag
board", for accessing the console and they don't make it obvious when
you order the guruplug.
Awesome! Looks like the big one can do 2x GigE and some home automation
stuff. Sounds like good fun for Plan 9.

find that i'll need to order the JTAG board before i can do anything.
i didn't see this requirement when i ordered them over a month ago.

ideally one would have a mp library as go uses

I made a new installation of plan9 at work, now i can use plan9 at

and at work. :) After a few days of using the system and reading some

So, i started to followed the wiki;

Yes, I'm agree, but with one exception - awk(1) separates a data from a
code, hoc(1) doesn't do it. So hoc(1) can be used for plain calculation
tasks, not for processing input files with a data.
