I honestly don´t remember, but according to our dump, it seems that
autofs, then autodirfs, then mntgen was added on Jul 16th, 2002 to our dump.
Looking at Rog´s mail, (Jul 15th) I think that probably I did read his
idea on the list
and implemented it for Plan 9.
A nice thing of Plan 9 is that it is so versatile that many changes made
to the system just seem to fit as if they were there all the time :)
