Almost all of the original plan9 team work for google now.
some of them work on Go, a language which has shared ancestry with alef and limbo.
there are not maintainers as such, though some people do maintenance and some still develop new features and ports.
plan9 is ad hoc.
i still think it's vastly better than anything else.
and what i want for plan9?
native gcc cross compilers (for work), oauth2 support in webfs, native firefox, and native svn would do nicely.
