The reason why I'm distinguishing between the plan9 and systems based on is 
quite simple. The moment we agree on such a fact we have a way to exchange code 
bug fixes participate in discussions. By this definition everything that can 
directly compiled and run on the final release of plan9 is usable by all forks 
cause each fork will have means of porting from this "mothership" and if people 
from different forks discuss than we discuss about things part of this 
mothership. Its okay that each fork has different views for things outside of 
this definition but this would end the never ending discussions.
