I'm looking at

and I noticed that most of the distribution hasn't been updated in
years.
Is the development of plan 9 abandoned?

There's a plan9changes google group I believe that will let you see the commits that have been going in.

Plan 9 is satisfying all it's users' needs at the moment. There have been proposals to make it more linuxy in the past, but we know where linux is if we want it.

That's not to say people aren't exploring new ways to develop it and make it a better Plan 9.
