Hello 9fans,
I am interested in working on either of the graphics-related projects
suggested on the GSOC wiki page.
For the window system enhancements, my immediate idea would be to
implement title bars and dwm-style keyboard commands and tiling, but I
fear that this would not be a large enough p
To clarify:
Yes, participation in GSoC is governed by US financial
regulations which restrict individuals (students or mentors)
from certain countries, including Cuba and Iran (and a few
others I can't think of off the top of my head, but it's a
very short list).
While I believe this comes from US
I use a Pi as my main terminal and find it generally works
great. I had a bunch of USB issues until I made sure I was
using a 10W USB adaptor and a powered hub.
In the round after mine, they made some revisions to the
power handling which I understand make it a bit less fussy.

We are converting the system to 21-bit runes (also known as 32-bit
runes, but only 21 bits are ever used). The first step will be
pushing out versions of a few commands and library routines that have
been modified to be agnostic about Rune size.
The next step is recompiling the compilers and push
I'm very happy with Miller's port, it's the easiest way to try plan9 on
real hardware. I'm planning to port my Go program to Go on plan9
on the pi.
I also have a lot of USB errors with the keyboard connected to a
powered hub (missing some key events because the errors), but
it works plugging it di

Yes, but not through the context of GSoC. It is unfortunate.

I have little plan 9 experience and was up and running in maybe 10
minutes using Richard Miller's image. No speed bumps, let alone walls.

I've seen 9 running on a raspberry pi, and now am really interested in buying a
model A to run it on (maybe B to have some fun with 9P). But before I jump the
gun, are there any known brick walls associated with this set up? Like needing
two usb instead of a hub? Thanks!

I'm pretty certain gsoc mentors don't have to sign noncompetes.

Yes politics under the surface, but for Google, they don't want to
deal with any of that, so they just restrict it.

Politics... no.
It is most likely to do with taxes and other paperwork. it would be a
huge hassle for Google to employ students all over the world, more
hassle than it is worth apparently.

are you sure it's not a display issue? sometimes a double-timezone
conversion or incorrect timezone conversion can screw up the date.
fossil uses time(0), which in theory should not conflict.

Hello,
I had already reported that a machine froze hard when manipulating
windows under rio.
Indeed, nasty things arise when some program is spitting a huge amount
of text; window is blocking while there is more; I then, in the middle
of the process, switch to scrolling.
The nasty thing is writi
I was testing a new version of kerTeX (more changes to my compilation
framework---mainly around Windows Interix support) with Plan9 (new
version released BTW), and I stumbled once upon on date strange
behavior.
IIRC, I did not use this Plan9 node since the CET Saving Time switch.

thats a real shame.
its a pity when politics gets in the way of education - I assume this
is the problem, i apologise if not.
