On: The Plan 9 Foundation

[cardanome]

What about community forks like 9front that provides updates and improvements? Will they be ignored?

Who is exactly behind the foundation?

Yep 9front is alive and well. They're occasionally adding new drivers, fixing bugs, making semi-regular releases, dog-fooding the thing daily, etc. Also the artwork/banter is top-notch (if you ignore a couple loud controversies).

It's more about preservation, like a museum of software history.
