[9fans] First International Workshop on Plan 9

[9fans] First International Workshop on Plan 9

[Fco. J. Ballesteros]

:  congratulations!

Wait until Dec 6th, 2006. ;-)

:  the timing is interesting, though:

More than you imagine, Dec 6th is the
"Constitution day" in Spain. Perhaps St.
Nicolas might stay for a party before going
back to Netherlands.

:  What about troff?

[Plan 9] troff is welcome.
In general, we just want to be sure that we'll be
able to generate PDFs using a Plan 9 machine.

We'll mention troff in the CFP.
I'm sorry we didn't.

congratulations!

the timing is interesting, though:

the 5th of december is the day when in the Netherlands
St. Nicolas (Sinterklaas) brings presents for the children
(of all ages).
Every year St. Nicolas comes from Spain to the Netherlands, 
by boat, a few weeks in advance of the event.

Sounds like I'll have to travel to spain to 'pick up'
my 2006 present from St. Nicolas :-)

Axel.
