Read the papers just to get a rough idea about the concepts and practice. Once you start using it, many things will start to make sense, other won't, so you'll have to read parts of the papers again. A little piece of advice that is commonly given to newcomers: if you try to understand Plan 9 (and 9front) based on the experience you already have with other systems, you are likely to get frustrated. On the other hand, if you can take the effort to learn something new, the experience will pay off.
