Hello 9fans, I'm applying to the Plan 9 GSoC again this year.

I propose to continue work on the HTML5 drawterm I started in last
year's GSoC, in the hope of making it a usable alternative to the
native drawterm.

I have identified three major areas for improvement:
* cleaning up and fixing bugs in the graphics and input code
* using the authenticated and encrypted cpu(1) protocol
* multithreading the 9p library

If you would like to read my proposal, I have posted it here:

I'd like to see this proposal get priority since David is a returning
student and last year's effort was a success.
