From: Stephen Hocking sysseh@dev... Subject: Plan9 mentioned by id (again) Date: Fri, 21 Mar 1997 08:36:41 +1000 In John Carmack's .plan (for March 18), the following snippet can be found. Plan9 I spent a few months running Plan9. It has an achingly elegent internal structure, but a user interface that has been asleep for the past decade. I had an older version of quake dedicated server running on it (don't ask me for it -- I lost it somewhere) and I was writing a civilized window manager for it in my spare time, but my spare time turned out to be only a couple hours a month, and it just got prioritized out of existance. -- The views expressed above are not those of WorkCover Queensland, Australia.
