> We still keep a lot of other dirty stuff, specifically so we can talk to other outmoded servers that are not even Plan 9. Maybe Plan 9 systems are so rare it doesn't matter, but this policy seems quite randomly applied.

correct, but theres a difference there. cpu and import are our native
plan9 protocols. for foreign protocols you cannot do much, if they
are bad and widely deployed. while cpu and import deployment is assumingly
much smaller as we used it mostly ourselfs. so the responsibility of
cleaning up the mess is on us i think... before anyone gets hurt.

disabling the listener is a good first step, maybe many people will
whine about it. but i doubt it. lets see.

speaking of other outmoded servers, openssh deleted sshv1 protocol
support.
