Hello 9fans,

I've been doing some research, and come across Brasil, which, if I've got this right, was a co-operating system minimal Inferno layer used on the Blue Gene/L project. Now, if I've got that wrong, please tell me...!

This interests me, of course, as I prepare to bring up my Parallella board (I still need a fan for it - tsk tsk). Is there any source for Brasil available to the public, as my Google searches isn't showing any repos (but I did get this: http://graverobbers.blogspot.com.au/2009/05/few-words-on-brasil.html)? I understand the project to the Blue Gene/L was many years ago, and all of the IBM references on their website seem to have disappeared in the interim.

Many thanks!

Shane.
