Just to note: The bounties page contains some updates the GSoC page does not. Perhaps most notable is video playback which looks like it might be nearly done.

9atom development ceased years ago, possibly before 9legacy got started. It had one developer; he posts occasionally. 9atom was related to Coraid in some way. Coraid used 9front, but the board of directors made them switch to Solaris, and then, "proving the adge that companies who switch operating systems go bankrupt, they went bankrupt." This was about 2014 or 15.
