Out of curiosity, what's your use case for the NIX kernel?


Use case??  My use case for NIX, and Plan 9 in general, is basically "fun" and "curiosity".  For my day job I run AIX, IBM i, and Windows when I have to (which is a lot) :)

@Rui: Jehanne diverged a lot from Plan 9, in a pursuit for my vision
of simplicity.
While it's in no way a Unix, many won't even consider it a Plan 9
system. Still for anyone interested: http://jehanne.io
