Almost all o= f the original plan9 team work for google now.

some= of them work on Go, a language which has shared ancestry with alef and limb= o.

there are not maintainers as such, though some p= eople 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 i= n webfs, native firefox, and native svn would do nicely.

Any plans for Plan 9 5th edition?

My desires:
ISO-compliant C compiler and preprocessor
Port other programming languages (especially Go) to here
Start a source code repository
Port Git, SVN, Mercurial, et cetera to here
