Put them both up if you want. The first one you mentioned had the
orangy flavor of nixie tubes. The second one is nice and compact, and
yiyus, don't be too hard on yourself, your logos were far better than
anything anyone else did.
I had forgotten the logos entirely. I found some old list traffic and
forwarded it.

If you're not ready for a full paper (up to 15 pages), consider a
3-page WIP. More details can be found at iwp9.org. Or show up for a
hack session!
Looking forward to see
Is there a preferred/recommended accommodation?
I'm planning my trip now and need to sort that out. My usual left bank

And they are horrible. We were talking about having a logo with some

Roughly speaking, Nix is based on a version of Jim McKie's 9k from early 2011.
Jim McKie later retrieved some improvements from Nix to its own 9k tree,

Credit where credit is due: this is made possible by the outstanding work

you should not need MP tables anyway. That is a 20-years-out-of-date
format that rarely is correct on most modern machines. ACPI is the
thing for you. 9front seems to do a good job of parsing it but, even
back in the day, plan 9 handled the MADT and friends just fine.

Netbooting is comfortable for this -- both on emulation and on real hardware.

There's nothing inherently multiple core about it, and adding multicore
support is probably not even that difficult. It just needs someone who
cares to roll up their sleeves and write (probably a couple of hundred)
lines of code.
I think the trickier part will be in exposing it to the VMs, and not
Also, a reminder: the way things improve is one yak shave at
a time. You try using the system for something, hit an issue
or limitation, and pull out the razor.
It doesn't have to happen for everything, every time, but
with enough people actually adding capabilities to the system,
things get bette
I will ask someone who does that a lot.

Do you (or anyone else) have a recipe for getting qemu to do a real netboot (as
opposed to using a tiny partition to store a 9fat and netbooting from that)? I
have tried and haven’t been able to work it out.

I will add it. Having added beamer with its dependencies (pgf and the
like), pictex shouldn't be very difficult...

pgf must have been a beast ! Looking forward to reading your paper and
