I'm doing it right now. It looks like a C++ application which means
that your task of porting it to plan9 will be even more difficult
than I previously though. It also looks like the sort of C++ they
use is not strictly speaking ISO STD complaint. But I need more
time to dig into this.

But do you have this list ?

If by the apps you mean MPQC -- I'm looking at it right now.
If by the apps you mean other OpenSource apps, there's a list
of about 500+ of them I'm looking at on a weekly basis. Most
of them have a pretty long list of non-trivial dependencies
on Linux environment.

Well, all I can say is -- its a pity that even more resources will
be spent on proliferating gcc's bad influence on application developers.
I understand that most likely you're doing it as part of your job which
means that you don't really have a choice.
Thanks,
Roman.
P.S. Is it that even HPC community is so commercialized and time-to-market
oriented these days that there's no light at the end of the tunnel ? Looks
like as far as Plan9 community is concerned, the only place where the
decisions are not dictated by the mighty VOC is Nemo's research lab.
Europe vs. USA kinda thing... I don't know...
