here's an unofficial answer.
 
we've been working on other things for the past year or so,
so there has been little new work on brazil.  phil and rob
and dave say that they want to get back to working on
brazil, but we don't know when that will be.

our plan 9 system is only used to access the old worm for archival
purposes.  our new file server contains only the brazil source
tree, so brazil is our current development system.  brazil is not
in a state that is releasable, so i doubt that there will be
a brazil release in the foreseeable future.

of course, all of this could change in a wink.
