When I started reading Plan9 documentation some years ago I noticed a
lack of examples (a simple 9P file server being the most notorious
one), until nemo's book appeared and I started to really play with the
system. Then, I realized how naive^Wstupid I had been: Plan9 is *full*
of examples. The source is there, grep is there (and src too!), what
else do you need? I don't think any written-on-purpose example can
explain file servers better than ramfs.c and its friends.
That said, more and better documentation is always welcomed, of course.

Regards,
