Actually -- to that point: if someone is looking for organizational
work to do, that work could be finding people with private forks of
Plan 9, and then convincing them to make it public.

Following that up with cataloguing the differences between the
various forks would also be useful work.

Harvey has actually done a decent amount of this, putting the forks
into branches in the repo:
