I've thought it's my mailing list setting problem...

Maybe if we ship Plan 9 with a reverse engineered port of Internet Explorer
6, we can regain some lost momentum.

wrong, you missed the point of Plan 9, so your joke isn't even funny.

I'm not sure what the "official" point of Plan 9 is, but I use Plan 9
because it's elegant, fun, minimalist, and has great documentation and
beautifully written code for its various pieces. It's an excellent hobbyist
programming environment. If I weren't hacking on Plan 9, I might instead be
getting stoned and using Pharo.

What's the Hiro-approved official version of the point of Plan 9 from Bell
Labs? Are you researching and publishing some dank papers?

The Internet explorer has already been tried by Lucent and didn't
work. Let's move on.

I don't really want a modern web browser in Plan 9, as I'm sure the rest of
you understand.

Plan 9 is about functional minimalism, and full-featured web browsers are
JavaScript-driven behemoths that exist outside of the Unix philosophy (uzbl
tries to fix this, not convincingly). Web browsers are often disgusting,
large, and beastly. The lack of a modern web browser on Plan 9 (and other
similar hobbyist OSs) keeps most of the idiots on the outside. It's a good
thing.
