plan 9 is our development environment and infastructure.  currently we run 
kenfs on a modified sr1521 as our fileserver.  we are adding aoe targets to kenfs.

i wasn't here when the decision was made to use plan 9 in the sr products.
so i can't really speak to that.

for my money, though, it's critical that one person can understand the kernel
and it's stable.
