environment for Go developers.

AFAIK though people just use plan9port to get Plan 9-like
functionality (Acme usage, primarily). Personally I see no benefits
using Plan 9 for development work unless you are developing for Plan
9. Yes, namespaces, 9p, and being more unix than unix is great
(awesome really), but you cannot run the majority of software to meet
other demands.

Just curious, what do you plan on developing, Mayuresh, if you could tell u= s?
