it's a tradition.
Or he might be making an attempt at a (bad) joke, pretending to be the only
member of the community. Or he was just grumpy. having not had his
morning coffee. Go figure.

unfortunately, I am afraid you might most probably be right.

My recommendation would be that if you want to do it, then just do it.
Fire up the issue tracker, and give the link to the tracker here.
If some people use it, then it's great. If they don't, at least you tried.

Plan 9 fans are either really reactive and enthusiastic, or really dull and
annoying. (sorry folks. Though I rarely interact on this list, I used to
have a great time reading it. But the past year has seen it be crippled by
useless and childish bashing, shadowing half of the interesting threads.
my hats off to the people who are helpful around here, and not only by
means of their technical expertise).
Just don't let the latter take your motivation away, and don't hold your
breath when you expect a reaction.

Thanks for suggesting something constructive.
