Hey Ron,
I did ping Lance (Ramereth) on #osuosl:irc.libera.chat, so we'll see
what he has to say once
it's morning time on the west coast. I wonder if we could extend this to
the Beaver Barcamp
(The Oregon State University Unconference), and get more students on
plan 9 🙂

Those are terrific ideas. I'm going to get in touch with them. I'm
thinking the winterfell nodes (I know them well ... ) could be very
good for NIX testing.
I registered with sdf.com, I'd like to learn how to work with students
on some of these projects. Starting off, I could use some code review
and corrections on a buggy device I've written :-).
Thanks!

Speaking of 'your ideas here', now that the p9f has some formal
structure, it might be worth looking into OSUOSL hosting. If you plan
to ramp up users, that'll come with a rise in i/o on contrib, and
hosting costs. The folks at OSUOSL provide a good service to projects
in this regard and OSU students participate in operations as a learning
exercise. They also have several architectures available for e.g.
platform testing. More here https://osuosl.org/services/hosting/details/
As for trivial on-ramps, SDF hosts 'boot camps' with the explicit intent
of being such an on-ramp. Users are provided VMs to use, and there are
talks and exercises and contests that involve putting Plan 9 skills to
use. I recommend partnering with them! More at https://sdf.org/plan9/
