Thank you, Sirjofri, nice idea.

There are two private U.S. companies that are investing, developing, and using 
a closed source Plan 9 distribution called ᴁOS (aka ᴁ9).  The companies have 
been in existence since 2020.

Nantahala Holdings, LLC
Nantahala Operations, LLC (dba Nantahala Systems)

Hey all,

Just about one topic mentioned by ibrahim:

You mentioned that 9front can't be plan 9 in your perspective because
of this licensing and the "origin" of the licensing.

9front isn't plan9 from my perspective. Plan 9 is the final release with 
patches for the files from sources I can be sure that those aren't taken from 
open source projects by copy and paste.
[1]

I would make a big difference between what plan 9 is and what the
licenses are. Software doesn't care about licenses. People do (and they
should!).

So what is plan 9 even? Can we compare it to UNIX™ or unix or posix?
Who knows...

I guess I could say a lot more about that topic, but I guess that's
enough and you can puzzle everything else yourself.

[1] (I would be very careful with such bold words. I feel like 9front
people have heard this phrase a lot and it's probably very thin ice for
a few people.)

About another topic: you mentioned that plan 9 is in use for commercial
products, and you explicitly mention german medical sensors. I've never
heard about that and I'd like to learn more, as well as about other
companies who actually use plan 9.

Everything I always hear in the industry is that plan 9 is outdated and
nobody uses it and nobody wants to hear about it. I only know of a
single company that uses it (coraid), plus a few little projects by taw
that could evolve into commercial products.

I sometimes thought about building a list of companies that use plan 9
technology, just so people can get involved with them, and now that I'm
searching for a new job that's even more interesting for me personally.
(Not sure if I want to do plan 9 as $dayjob, but I could see it as an
option.) That topic should end up in a new thread however (or even a
DM).
