BTW, there were two "logos":

I don't know if these revive some memory for the people working on it
initially. FWIW

"Historical" note: David David du Colombier's 9legacy have patches
coming from nix applied (and some reverted):

9k-jmk-physalloc                The NIX Authors         sys/src/9k/k10: import 
physalloc from NIX

9k-jmk-mmu-physalloc    The NIX Authors         sys/src/9k/k10: use physalloc 
in MMU

##9k-jmk-mmu-freelist   The NIX Authors         sys/src/9k/k10: import MMU 
freelist from NIX
##9k-jmk-image-lru              The NIX Authors         sys/src/9k/port: import 
image LRU from NIX

FWIW too.

Note: I had planned to review the whole tree (diff'ing essentially) to
spot pieces that could be related to NIX and not in sys/ subdirs. Do
knowledgeable people think it still has some value to do so?
