Hi 

        I have done an initial draft for what can be considered to be
`A commentary on Plan9', it's a (189 pages) description of how the
kernel   works (terminal/cpu only, not the fs kernel, sorry).

Although my english is kind of poor, and I've found that some things I
wrote are incorrect (and many others will still be incorrect), I'd
really love to get some feedback on the text.  My students are going
to suffer the text during the next semester in my OS design course.

Be warned that I'm still rewriting parts of the last couple of
chapters.  Beware that I also described some things in the first
chapters, which I've later found that were wrong (while doing the last
chapters)

I wouldn't like to put it on the web (yet) until you 9fans guys have
the chance to let me know what you think, and I have the chance to fix
things up.  So, if any of you would like to take a look at this thing
(please, do :-) ), just send me an email.  I'll send you back a
postscript. 

Hope to hear from u soon.

cheers
