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,

Since the Plan 9 Foundation doesn't focus on technical aspects, Would the
