Topicbox-Message-UUID: 8b619796-ead7-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025 Plan 9 is a research platform for programmers, not a product. As such, your questions don't make sense. Everybody maintains their private trees because this is the way the system is supposed to be used. Plan 9 has a philosophy, but not a direction. There's no single roadmap. At least not anymore. Legal issues in the project? Unlike a particularly successful free software project, the Plan 9 community cares about code and not about licensing. --=20 Aram H=C4=83v=C4=83rneanu
