perceived belligerence is generally best countered by empathy.
fault-tolerant parsing of people's intentions and a will for
de-escalation can help concentrate on the common vision.
if there is any.
perhaps you already know everything that linux does wrong, which plan9
supposedly did right ever since it's inception. personally i am still
learning more in that regard, but it becomes easier if you're part of
the inception and if people share ideas, practical experiences,
educate each other and not just doing archeology, staring in awe at
artworks, or worse: actually using the system.
i know you know i don't know what i'm saying here. i guess in contrast
it's still relevant, so i'll leave it here regardless, without my
usual minute proofreading
