I'm one of the "guilty" parties regarding plan9-tech. GSOC requires public communications, but I'm entirely unhappy passing "did you check bit 11 of the VPN register" level of crap to 9fans - it's clearly not where it belongs (I believe it belongs in private email, but that's another matter). Plan9-tech was a (possibly ill-named) place to drop those messages.

Frankly, my post-mortem on gsoc won't be very nice. I should never have accepted to work with a student 9 timezones away, even if the project is really interesting. And I certainly could have poured arbitrary amounts of time into it, but I'm really unsure where the line is between the student's project and my own (essentially recreational) coding.

The plan9-tech list was created (not by me) after various gsoc
students *and* mentors plain refused to use 9fans, and really, who can
blame them when even jmk refuses to use 9fans anymore.

Anyway, keep jumping to assumptions, bashing people who tries to help,
and doing what you have doing so far, it seems to have worked really
well.

P.S.: Oh, I know, you would rather have everyone use private email,
that has worked so wonderfully so far.

good one uriel, good one.

so, set me straight on this: somone is leading the tribe of True 3lite Hackers across the desert, gonna part the waters etc., take 'em to the
promised land, and so on.

So, uh, who are these tech contributors who are going? I can only gaze
in awe. And, once they get there, I assume they'll take a blanket off
the blanket tree and take a nap (ref. to CM Kornbluth is entirely
intentional; I'll let you find story and title).

p.s. met the coraid guys at linux world yesterday. Very, very fine
stuff. I love the fact that they are 'the linux storage company'.
