[9fans] Is Plan9 still alive?

[-|-]

Hello,

i'm new to this list and i'd like to know if plan9 is still alive?
Do they still develop? I saw a USB post few days ago and
i guess if ith lacks USB support the answer might be: no.

TIA

You are right. We are a sect of dead operating systems worshippers.
We write code and throw it away the same way as budists do.

People that cut flowers write code and throw it away?
Or is a budist someone that drinks cheap american beer?

this has got to be a trick question!  i mean, how much more obvious
can you get from the Plan 9 movie tagline:

"Unspeakable Horrors From Outer Space Paralyze The Living And
Resurrect The Dead!"

the answer then is: "not really alive, not completely dead yet"...

No. We all are dead. When we were alive we did
read code from Linux and that was the cause.
Now we don't have to, and things are more simple.
