This is only partly true (AFAIK). 9wm is an X-Windows window manager that
looks/behaves like the (builtin) window manager in 8 1/2. There has been
mentionings of actually replacing all of X, but I have not heard about any
success yet.

Finally, do not forget 9menu. Not from Plan9, but a nice helper for 9wm.
