Hi Guys,

I was rereading selected places of Rob's "Getting Dot-Dot Right"
paper and it suddenly occurred to me that the example he provides
there is something that I have always wanted to have. Here it is:
   % cat /proc/125099/ns
   .....
   mount -c /net/il/134/data /mnt/term
   ....
   cd /usr/rob

And, of course, if you run ns(1) it gets even better:
   % ns
   ...
   mount -c il!135.104.3.100!12884 /mnt/term
   ...

Now, when I happen to be logged into the Plan9 the best I can
see is this:
   % cat /proc/2012/ns
   ....
   mount '#s/sources' /n/sources
   ....
Which is fair (the mount really did have /srv/sources as an argument)
but makes me ask the next question: how can Rob's experience be
achieved here? How can I get to the Channel (with the hope of invoking
fd2path) that was given to devsrv when /srv/sources was created?

Thanks,
Roman.
