plan 9 wiki is a very good suggestion. I would like to start
such a topic there. I do have 2 questions though:
   1. It doesn't seem to allow anonymous edits:
   I tried:
     http://netlib.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/sandbox/edit.html
   and all I got was:
     http://netlib.bell-labs.com/magic/wikipost
     Object not found
     The object does not exist on this server.

     errstr: '/bin/ip/httpd/wikipost' does not exist
     uri host: 
     header host: 
     actual host: plan9.bell-labs.com
   Direct edits from my Acme also don't seem to work.

   2. When/if it works what would be the appropriate place
   to stick that topic into?

Agreed. In fact, halfway is a very accurate description ;-) It already
has http://9p.cat-v.org/implementations, but it still lacks what I 
would call a "servers" page.

That would be http://9p.cat-v.org/servers linked from his Left-hand-side
menu. Speaking of getting in touch with Uriel -- is he not subscribed
to this list? ;-) Or well, I'll CC him ;-)

Thanks for the .md suggestion. One thing that I clearly see missing on
the implementations page is the Java implementation done at LSUB.

Thanks,
Roman.
