I would like to start such a topic there. I do have 2 questions though: 1. It doesn't seem to allow anonymous edits: I tried: http://netlib.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/sandbox/edit.html and all I got was: http://netlib.bell-labs.com/magic/wikipost Object not found The object does not exist on this server. errstr: '/bin/ip/httpd/wikipost' does not exist uri host: header host: actual host: plan9.bell-labs.com Direct edits from my Acme also don't seem to work. 2. When/if it works what would be the appropriate place to stick that topic into? > > Meanwhile I've just added my 9P libs (libmixp, libmixpsrv) > > to the 9P page @ wikipedia - probably a good starting point, too. > > > > But if we're talking about 9P/Styx in general (not specifically > > on Plan9 or Inferno), it might be wise to set up a sepate website. > > This site should also contain information on topics like what 9P > > is really good for and why application developers should use it :) > > > > Just let me know if you'd like to feed some input to such a site, > > and I'll set up one. > > http://9p.cat-v.org is halfway there, makes more sense to improve > that than start a new site. Agreed. In fact, halfway is a very accurate description ;-) It already has http://9p.cat-v.org/implementations, but it still lacks what I would call a "servers" page. > Get in touch with Uriel if you want something on there that isn't already there, That would be http://9p.cat-v.org/servers linked from his Left-hand-side menu. Speaking of getting in touch with Uriel -- is he not subscribed to this list? ;-) Or well, I'll CC him ;-) > or if you want to make > his life easy you can send a patch to the document source.

One thing that I clearly see missing on the implementations page is the Java implementation done at LSUB. Thanks, Roman.
