I've been writing a guide to Plan 9 for UNIX users, hilighting the
differences between Plan 9 and UNIX needed to get UNIX users up to speed
on Plan 9.  I shudder to think how much work it would take to write a
guide for complete newbies (without a UNIX background).

A description how the filesystems interact would be awesome!  As far as
system administration goes, this appears to be one of the areas in which
the difference P9 and UNIX is most confusing.
