I don't know what this discussion is supposed to prove. Russ spends time tracking down two errors in #plan9. Sample space - large. Errors - 2. Turns out one was quickly corrected so even without grepping through 9fans we see one error in 9fans - quickly corrected. Perhaps it's time for technical discussion rather than talking about talking about plan9. Just my morning rant. brucee
