The license restrictions remain a stumbling block but it would be nice to ask Lucent to change them, if we could decide what it is that we all want :-) My two cents' worth is that I'd like to use Plan 9 commercially, although in a very restricted environment: I operate as a low key ISP, and I'd like all my computers to be served from a Plan 9 core network - one or two clients would similarly benefit from running Plan 9 instead of Windows NT as a core server. Then again, I may not be representative, although it would be nice to think that there are affinities with others on this list. -- Lucio de Re (lucio@proxima.alt.za) Disclaimer: I'm working at getting my opinions to agree with me.
