However, as I know Plan 9 is very easy to maintain system and users, and to write programs, I started to do it by reading papers such as "Plan 9 from Bell Labs" etc. with them. Today, I asked Yoshitatsu what was his first impression of Plan 9 when he touched, and his answer is that it was "then, so what?". :-) I understand it, because Plan 9 doesn't have "killer application" except of acme. which is only for programmers or system maintainers. However, he is writing Plan 9 application now. However, this is not accepted by many of Japanese _SOFTWARE_ companies, if any...

Can I get notes and stuff from you? Also, what works? What will impress them? And yes i _have_ the papers from 1127, the stuff I want to steal from you is what you did with that.
