As I've said before on this list, don't read too much into the name
change.  People here continue to develop and run a lineal descendant
of Plan 9 second edition; it's called Brazil.  Some things have
changed, but I doubt that any user of second edition would be shocked,
stunned and flabbergasted if confronted with Brazil.  Anybody who
thinks Plan 9 withered up and died inside Bell Labs after the second
edition release is dreaming.

Did you consider Unix abandoned after the Fifth Edition release?
after the Sixth Edition release?
