Yeah, but Plan 9 is "free", at least in scare quotes, and AFAICT
Inferno is not.  "It runs under Inferno" is therefore considerably

 From this it sounds rather as if splufty new applications for Plan 9
are not going to happen, and that new work is all happening over in
Inferno land.  Is that accurate?
