same here, with the small addition that p9p relieves a lot of the
prototyping burdain on Linux too. we got a small system written in p9p
(so it runs on Plan 9 too), got it to be reasonably stable, evaluated
(even by end users) it and now it's off to be rewritten in Linux'
native tongue.

way less painful than it could otherwise have been.
