ori, adventuresin9, sirjofri:

thank you kindly for your responses. i am very sick so i do not contain the
energy to quote your replies and respond to them individually. apologies.

i have a better understanding of plan 9 grids now. as i understand it, the
elegance of plan 9 is in its simplicity, not in unique features or
abilities.

your personal examples are appreciated. ori, kernel development seems
beyond my horizon at this point, but it may come sooner than i think.
adventuresin9, your explanation of a cpu server was very helpful. and
sirjofri, you seem to be correct about a file server being so nice. i set
up a local file server on a laptop just to experiment, and while i’m
definitely not taking full advantage of what it has to offer, i understand
the convenience.

thanks again you guys. i recently posted on the r/plan9 subreddit with a
short list of small questions. if anyone would be so generous as to provide
understanding to any of them, i would be most grateful. i am eager to give
back to the plan 9 community as soon as possible, instead of taking up your
time. i’m documenting all helpful information, scripts, etc. so that once i
get comfortable i can have make a document to help others go down the same
path.
