Lean in concepts and algorithms doesn't necessarily imply lean in
resource usage -- sometimes the opposite. I don't have access to
1st edition source, but the 2nd edition C compiler used
clearly the more certain people think the more text gets created.

feel free, it will save everybody's time.
Let's take a step back here, and stop treating jerks like Kurt (or me,
for that matter) the way they treat the ideas they perceive to be
hare-brained.
It's weird that with all the time in the world to "think before
posting", knee-jerk reactions still find their way to a mailing list
like this one
ooh, there's an idea for new project...
I also have a soft spot for the old PDP11 architecture and aesthetics, and
like the idea of an emulator sitting behind an 11/70 front panel, but I
havn't been able to decide what software to run on it...
Unix ran quite nicely on an 11/70 back in the late
You're being a real jerk, Kurt. I don't really care what your
rationale is; it's simply unnecessary.
Flame away,

Mayuresh,
To echo what others have said,
Hi Mayuresh,
Please don't be discouraged. The Plan 9 community is small and has its
fair share of trolls.
If you feel strongly about this effort then by all means move forward!
In the past, I've found that a prototype/proof of concept can speak
far more than any email I could write ahead of
it's sad that technical disagreements have to lead to such hysteria :(
Hi Mayuresh !
Can't help offering the quote:

you win. *
*Mahatma Gandhi*
I have read with considerable bemusement the many responses to your
proposal. Granted that it does look like a huge challenge. Knowledgeable
man, i experienced such heavy negativity towards my efforts to build a
linux kernel based plan9port vehicle that i am sure considering
abandoning the effort.
the idea was to have a 64-bit linux kernel with the advantages of
plan9port (small and elegantly designed+developed tools).
no, really,
