I'm not sure, but possibly. I'm involved in starting a company built around various sorts of 24/365 on-call and contract IT and programming services built around Open Technology. Plan 9 and Inferno will feature in that to a significant degree. The company is In Silica, LLC. Though it will operate under a DBA (Open Forge). The Hangar 18 project is only one of the things we've got going. Our focus is on reliable distributed computing, global sign on, business informatics & automation. If all went well the paperwork hit the state's desk this afternoon. Should be in business (technically) sometime next week. If you would like more details please contact me directly. -- ____________________________________________________________________ We don't see things as they are, ravage@ssz.com we see them as we are. www.ssz.com jchoate@open-forge.org Anais Nin www.open-forge.org --------------------------------------------------------------------
