Subject: [9fans] Will I ever use Brazil ?

I'm not an authority of this issue, and I'd be happy if I could
get Brazil source.  However, Plan 9 could help me to give
my student a clearer scope how to make programs.

When we see text books on unix, sorry Rob, your text is
used for this purpose here,  espetially network programming
and/or X gui programming.  I know how students feel it.
It's too hard to get a whole scope of it.  I agree with it
when I see a good text book by Stevens for networking.

Then, I asked myself that it's really neccessary things to
learn.  When I see Plan 9 first, I felt it's very easy to write
programs on this.  Therefore, I'm thinking now to use it
as our base for developement of our own programs.
Yes, it will take long time and great efforts to pay....

Just one of an opinion why I'm using Plan 9 now.
