if i were you, i'd start with something simple first, to
find my way round the system.  it's probably also not a bad
idea, as someone else suggested, to write a few small programs
for plan 9 itself, just to see the differences.  write a silly
concurrent program using thread(2), for instance, and perhaps a
little file server; but don't start writing your own until
you've read some of the existing ones.

for porting, both examples you've suggested are somewhat bigger than huge,
and perhaps not good things to try first.

Hi all,

I want to port some program or driver to Plan9 which is challenging as
well as important for Plan9. Please suggest me .

Is any JVM ported to Plan9? or Firefox? or any other suggestions

Anticipating replies.
Regards
Siddharth
