Hi, I am one of the organizers of the Plan 9 from Bell Labs participation at GSoC, and as part of GSoC we are interested in applications for implementations of the 9P protocol for other operating systems, specially small alternative systems which we think could benefit from its simplicity and flexibility. So far we have not received any application for a Haiku 9P implementation, so if anyone here is interested in working on such project, we will be very happy if they apply. Another project that occurs to me that might interest some members of this list is a port of hosted Inferno to Haiku, applications for this are also welcome. For more information about our participation in GSoC see: http://plan9.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/GSoC07/ and for more information about the 9P protocol visit http://cat-v.org/9p/ Apologies for the somewhat off topic intrusion and best wishes to everyone uriel P.S.: We are also giving away Glenda ( http://plan9.bell-labs.com/plan9/glenda.html ) t-shirts to participants in Plan 9's GSoC! Likely worth more than the 4500$ you will get from google ;)
