I'm now considering to make version-up of my Plan 9 system
(kfs file server + terminals), and have a plan to buy a notebook
for my work (education, and presentation use), and considered
what is the best system to me.

I have full file server at working, and I can refer to it anytime if
neccessary.   In such a situation, I need a lighter Plan 9 on a notebook
or for home task.   For such purpose, we now only have kfs fileserver.
If we could have fossil without venti for such purpose, it may help
me, and peobably help many who are planing to use Plan 9 system
for their introductory system.   How about this?
