[9fans] state of the mirrors
I have had quite some bad experience recently with the 9p sources mirrors. I have tried kix.in, which i know ised to be more stable than bell-labs, but my attempts to mount it via 9p have all failed. Also, the only other mirror i have found to be able to mount was sources.lsub.org, i modified the sources case of 9fs to say: srv -nq tcp!sources.lsub.org lsub.org /n/sources.lsub.org && bind /n/ sources.lsub.org/sources /n/sources with this i can mount and start the replica syncing from lsub.org, my problem is that it seems to be in an inconsistent state: http://friendpaste.com/5LgdD2gNM7rNkuHwpzvO2z_326264313764/raw I find it distressing, with the instability of sources, that there are no usable mirrors to sync from, and I wonder wether i have missed a mirror, or is everyone else just waiting for sources to come back up? Thanks, John

Well, for one i am interested, so if you have continued off-list, please cc me, i still have my amd64 xen host ready to host an plan9 guest if possible! I'd be so to be able to finally have a plan9 install! Thanks, John
