Hello Unixer,
I'm just reposting something that you might have already read somewhere else. http://www.phoronix.com/forums/showthrea...-GNU-GPLv2 What do you think about this? Will RMS start using Plan9? |

|
|||
hmm.. Interesting. Might want to look into plan9 again.
Thanks for the info venam. |

It's just so damn hard to get used to the mouse after being part of the glorious keyboard only master race, but it is definitely a cool system to play around with. Sadly, it's sliding a bit too much into obscurity.

@dami0: I really want to use it as a main system.
The problem: I want to do some shitposting on 4chan, too... |

Licensing (within reason) is always of secondary importance to me.
The usability, practicality and functionality are my biggest concerns. Plan 9 is lacking in some functionality Still well worth a look though! Thanks for the update venam |

I don't want to be mean, but I would like to say this is from february 2014. |

Oh god, just goes to show how little I pay attention to licensing changes
|

I guess this will be amazing cause i think Plan9 will have many user more having more application like Firefox etc.
|

No, most likely not. Plan9 is an invory tower, a nice experiment and excellent ground for tinkering. But that's about it.

I don't think it really does matter for me either :D @zr0 porting firefox to plan 9 would be a project, yeah (but a hell of work) |
