I am a little late on the reply to this Steve, but most of the ideas from
the list below were observations turned suggestions of mine compiled from
around 2003 when I was studying Plan 9.
There would have been less code in the contrib at that stage... for one...
fgb seems to have most of his work
FWIW
vi does run on plan9 - fgb did a curses port and
vim runs under that, various people turn in their graves
if you try to use it however.
there is also a lockable screensaver called screenlock(1)
what kind of MPEG support do you want? Audio support is not bad,

Yes, and being able to add a “pdl=application/pdf” could make the
Raspberry Pi a very nice little Airprint bridge for older Postscript
printers.

Funny you should mention file systems. As it turns out, I've been
working on a new file system for Plan 9 recently. It's too early to

Hello,
I am very much interested towards the Raspberry PI port. I do have some
experience working with embedded systems and I really do love it. I
personally owe rev B board, so looking forward for some ideas into this.

Very cool! I need to find some time to boot the pi I have at the
house. It's been sitting in the box since I picked it up.

I'd like to see Plan 9 fully support this board. The chipset is a closed
ecosystem with embedded microcontroller capabilities, such as GPIO.
Anything you add on the PCI-e would need further drivers, obviously.

I'd love to see this - device driver work can be difficult, though
rewarding. I would be happy to mentor anyone willing to take up this
challenge.

Good work!

Did anyone post a recoup of the GSOC 13 results? I'd like to see what

My vote is on the GUI builder - I'd like to see that one happen. Sorry, I
don't think I'm GSoC material, I just build hardware, and put the minimum
level of software on it to work...

Welcome Jessica!
Do you have a feel
Hello all,
I realize it's probably a bit early to be asking, but I'm curious if Plan 9
will be applying to participate in this year's GSoC. I'd definitely be
interested in participating as a student!
Thanks!
Jessica.
