Huh? ... the same way webfs does?
9p and namespaces is exactly what allows me to transparently access
the cpu/auth/file server from my thin client from which to springboard
my operating environment from any location, and how I'm able to
the processor on the cpu server, and how I'm able to arrange multiple
discrete environments from ad-hoc resources. That shit's intrinsic and
seamless to the plan 9 experience; I don't understand how it's not
immediately obvious how 9p and namespaces tie in and fit into the
whole idea.
Right? I hope I'm not still missing The Point, 'cuz that would be really
embarrassing by this juncture. :)

I have no disagreement.
I don't mind responding as long as people are directing comments
and questions at me though; should I announce that I hereby
extract myself from any further discussion? I don't mind doing
that either, if it means reducing annoyance levels from the list
members. I don't want make a continued annoyance of myself;
it's true that I've got plenty to cognate and work on.
Thankyou
