Hi Mayuresh,

Please don't be discouraged. The Plan 9 community is small and has its
fair share of trolls.

If you feel strongly about this effort then by all means move forward!
In the past, I've found that a prototype/proof of concept can speak
far more than any email I could write ahead of time. Give this a shot
- test our your ideas, and if you're pleased with the result share it!
This is a great opportunity to learn more about plan9port, it's
relationship with Linux and more importantly what a minimal system
could look like.

Regards,
Steve
