Subject: [9fans] How about some software?
Date: Mon, 17 Jun 2002 09:20:04 +0000 [thread overview]

Don't get me wrong here, I think Plan 9 is great. It's interfaces and
theory of operation are obviously superior to UNIX's. I see potential
for it to make far more powerful servers than UNIX, but not until we
get some more "universal" server apps for it. It would be nice to see
Apache and Samba ported to Plan 9. Also, maybe a good database like
PostgreSQL or MySQL, and some cross-platform scripting like tcl/tk.
(I'd do it myself, but unfortunately, I don't have the skills.) There
already is a way to serve NFS to UNIX, right?
But most of all, what about a good web browser? Anyone know where to
find Mothra for download or something similar?
Thanks everyone!
