why you all have so many time on Plan9 ?
is it very interest in researching plan9 ?
You are all not busy in working , right ?
and you all have much many to do your own things in spare time, right ?
Do you think it is very cool to program in plan9 ?

hi, thanks !!
I send several kind of this emails,but just you give me a back.
I think so .

last year I installed a play9 in qemu, but didnot know how to use it, how to
begin
to program for it. Meanwhile my work is very busy and do not have enough
time
to play with it.

Can you give a advice on how to start to program for it ?
are there some useful materials on it  ?
Are you install it on a physical machine or just use virtual machine ?

Read the papers at http://plan9.bell-labs.com/sys/doc/ may be a good
starting point.

Frankly, it is really time consumed.  So, please be careful to
schedule your work and the navigation into plan9.  Anyway, plan9 is a
real production platform rather than a toy.

When I was a graduate student, my teacher taught me "Science is a private work,
and if you want to learn something from someone, you should first contact 
her/him
direct.  This is very important, and you should remember this all the time" 
(not the

I don't know what google is doing, however, I suppose they must have 
some criteria on what they are doing.   Furthermore, I think they are on a 
business
world, where there is a solid way to solve problems if any.   

To contact someone in person is not so hard now, just write email, very easy. ☺
If he had done this way, there may have been no problem...

Above said, yes,  I think I can understand what you are saying.   
This is a very difficult problem now.   However, I believe the way what human 
thinks
right will not change so easy in a long time.

strange, i haven't talked to einstein, nor
Well, clearly the personal discussion of an issue, brings the fastest
and biggest gain of wisdom. Optimally for every one related. But we
often have a big difference of wisdom so that one will rather hold
lectures or write books about it to impart more knowledge to a brouder
public.
I didn't contact newton to get some basic understanding of my environment.
I don't mind it not being possible either.
emailing is easy, and that's why i'm consuming your time, too.
but otherwise i don't see the point in this advice of your teacer's.
Ther is no magic bullet email. And furthermore, there is no problem,
like you call it.



[9fans] ip/dhcpd delays

ip/dhcpd prints the time it takes to generate an offer in µs.
we're not using any dynamic addresses which could generate
a sleep in db.c:/^lockopen yet i times between 0µs and 
110µs.  has anyone else seen this behavior?

there is no problem actually, just a different hierarchy of values caused
by the difference in our cultures. this won't happen again.
next time I have some information that could be useful to someone, I'll
check my priorities and decide the right course of action.
