The most undocumented parts are memory management, processes scheduling. Since my first request for help I received I reply with additional information (on file system) and many requests of other students with my same problem. Again if any of you can send me any information that is not explicitly documented please send it to me. I will also send copy to other guys in the need and make also the short plan9 review available on my web page. My impression is that the undocumented part are those that probably are implemented in some standard way so that they do not merit any special description (like a conference paper). Anyway I need this kind of information too. You could send me just a sentence stating what is the "well known" approach taken in plan9 for a certain feature. Also I read on an old 9fans email that it is allowed to send chunks of code as long the entire system cannot be reconstructed. So if you can send any specially meaningful piece of code (e.g. e piece of the scheduler) I could include such code pieces in my paper and of course understand better the implementation details. Thanks a lot in advance. ciao Valerio
