Hello,
another one which might be a FAQ:
Do you require applicants to be from the USA, or are you ok with ppl
from the old continent (or anywhere else for that matter) ?
Cheers,

They do. They pay engineers to write papers, not software.
That's their way to put a limit on the harm done.

perhaps you are reading the diff backwards? it used to

i've been working on an an audio driver for the kirkwood for a while now,
indeed it's been working well for a while now. at this point i'm mostly
struggling to figure out the mixer/controls/codec filesystem interface.
if any of this is incorrect, please correct me.

It's a real bug and a correct fix, as we've discussed before,
but if the kernel loses this race I believe it will crash dereferencing nil.

Changing a device's file format in a backwards-incompatible way
is not something to be done lightly. In addition to changing all
drivers you'd have to change every user program that reads from
or writes to them, even ones that you don't know exist.

you are correct. i was confused.
the bug reported looks like a missing waserror().

At the latest IWP9 I caught wind of interest in getting a JTAG file system
added into Plan 9. There were more details than just the file system and USB
connectivity that are still a little foggy. At first I didn't show to much
enthusiasm but things have changed in a few short weeks!

I am intrigued, what facalities would jtag software provide on plan9,
is the idea a virtual filesystem which would communicate with a fairly
dumb jtag interface connected to (say) a PC's printer parallel port,
or may there is some standardised USB interface?
I jse jtag probes from time to time but
I've used JTAG to debug and program a couple of embedded systems. I
even had an automated regression test suite that tested some AVR
hardware using gdb running on Gentoo talking to an JTAG. Freaky but
fun.
If I recall correctly many chips will allow you to see and twiddle
internal registers
I just ran into the following FAQ and info that might be of help:

For those people using 5c, I found a bug recently in the
conversion of ulong to float64. The bug is that it's not
implemented at all; instead 5c uses the long to float64 code,
so converting 0x8000 produces -2^31 not 2^31.
This matters in _v2d, which uses it to convert vlong to float64.

Hi folks,
I just committed a very simple implementation of asynchronous TClunk to
inferno-npe. The implementation will only defer sending clunks when MCACHE
is specified on the mount (via the new -j option to Inferno's mount,
analogous to Plan 9's mount -C) and when the file is not marked ORCLOSE.
