If the complaint is that the forks of Plan 9 from Bell Labs are not "mainline"
because they are not the original Labs' Plan 9, then damn the creators of Plan
9 for creating their own C compiler and not using mainline C.
And damn those who did not stick with K C and demanded ANSI C and ISO C.
I read this website which had one of the old mail adresses :
https://9p.io/wiki/plan9/how_to_contribute/index.html
another one had the link to Geoff's mail at bell-labs as admin.

plan9.bell-labs.com doesn't exist anymore. This is probably a remnant of the
former website.

It's a neat summary, but it reflects a particular perspective

I don't think you can have a contrib account on p9f, but you can get
a contrib account at 9p.io.

I would like to share runtime images of my plan9 fork and also some code
changes which are not directly useful for plan9 but of interest for people
using plan9 to provide kiosk systems.
I tried to register at p9f and the mail I sent to the admin couldn't be
delivered. I searched for info
First of all, I have my own fork of plan9 which was/is used by a few hundred
users.
My fork is based on 9legacy. And I'm really surprised to regularly see this
discussion about a 'mainline' and the argumentation against 9front. Fact is :
9legacy provides patches and enhancements from 9front. I
In my experience, an open source team forms when
someone does work. If the work is good, others join
in. They start with someone taking initiative to
build.
Eventually, it may make sense to put in some
bureaucracy, as people doing the work struggle to
communicate effectively.
Right now, it

Honestly speaking, in current situation this tastes a bit for
administration for the sake of administration. In my opinion it would be
more fruitful to bring together at first the niners with similar goals and
needs i.e. "SIGs" at first which could form the core later if necessary

Hey Vic,
I followed the other thread and read through your initial mail. Here's my
thoughts.
I don't think the development of another mainline release or the formation of a
core team really makes sense. A core team is built around a solid vision and
the ability (and want) to follow that.
My
When looking at the FreeBSD project, the introduction of a Plan 9 Core Team can
offer several benefits:
1. *Centralized Technical Leadership*: A Core Team can provide clear technical
leadership and direction for the project. This ensures that development efforts
are coordinated, focused,
