I have no idea how to counter the belligerence with which more
conservative suggestions than accepting 9front as the torch-bearer for
the Plan 9 religion are addressed on this forum. Thankfully, it
doesn't actually matter that I can't.

But the misunderstanding of my use of "dark side" can't go
unchallenged. The Dark Side is what drives Linux development, the need
to discover new ways in which to make Linux and Gnu software larger
and larger, irrespective of whether that leads to greater
functionality or merely cosmetic, irrelevant decorations.

That's all that I believe needs saying, the details will make for
interesting archeology, a few hundred years, if that many, from now.

Lucio.
