  1. I have uploaded the recordings of the #IWP9 sessions, minus the remote ones; those will follow, I'll need some time for processing them.

    Meanwhile, @johnretrobytes has just released a neat video on Plan 9:

  2. The original drawing ^^! Was drawn/inked by hand and scanned :P...

  3. @neauoire He never explained fully what is tbdfs on his videos. After #iwp9 I finally got it. It's a really cool idea.

  4. Andrew Gibson(adventuresin9)'s talk yesterday at #iwp9 about file systems gave me so many ideas, but one thing that struck me was his highlighting BeOS' metadata.

    It makes it possible to use files as contacts, recipes, playlists, anything really and view these tags in the file manager. IT'S SO COOL, I want to build that for myself now.

  5. Designed the t-shirt for this year's #IWP9 in Victoria ^^!

  6. Many people didn't know that Plan 9 was still a thing, and that we had reestablished #IWP9.

    I have been attending since 9th edition, and so this is my fourth time. No regrets!

    We have many students participating, and it's a great opportunity for them to not only meet each other, but also people who've been working in the industry for a good bunch of years. Hearing the convos during the lunch break here is super nice! \o/

  7. For those interested, IWP9 is being live-streamed and the papers and WIPs are all linked from IWP9.org.

  8. We have done a setup test for #IWP9 today, everything looking good! 😌

    Then had fish 'n' chips for lunch.

    Anthony Estey is being very nice hosting us at the UVic Faculty of Engineering and Comphter Science.

    Things I hadn't seen before: "Earthquake" button in the elevator.

    Finally, we now got the schedule up on iwp9.org 😅

  9. I just upgraded the system on the recording laptop for #IWP9, which is @archlinux btw, the only convenient distro out there. 🤗

    I used the chance to try out #LXQt on #Wayland with #niri. While niri is not my cup of tea, this was a good chance to contribute to the #Arch wiki and document pitfalls with the config file; see the note in the wiki.archlinux.org/title/LXQt# section.
    Kudos to the person on Reddit who replied to someone else wondering why their config file had no effect, albeit validating ok.

  10. Wir sind mit dem Plan 9 Stand sehr zentral aufgestellt. 🙂

    Wenn ihr bei den #CLT seid, schaut gern vorbei!

    Demosysteme zum Ausprobieren sind vorhanden.

    Eine Druckausgabe der letzten #IWP9 Proceedings und ein 9front Manual sowie noch ein Paper bieten euch zudem feinen Lesestoff. 📖

  11. Hey everyone,

    I am happy to announce the upcoming International Workshop on Plan 9 - #IWP9 2026! 🥳✨👩‍💻
    This time, we'll be at UVic in Canada. 🇨🇦

    The registration and #CfP are now open.

    Topics are: operating systems, system services and architecture, applications and generally things related to Plan 9.

  12. As part of the #IWP9 #hackathon, we were debugging the bringup of the RISC-V port of 9front to QEMU yesterday. It was really painful, compared to my experiences with other kernels like Linux and the ease of Rust and its built-in print format capabilities. We were finally able to use uartputs with a static char[]. Something is still wrong, probably the static base register, as moody hinted on.
    Anyway, we narrowed this down and learned a lot.

  13. This year's #IWP9, the International Workshop on Plan 9, will be held at CNAM in #Paris.

    A lot of interesting WiPs and papers were submitted.

    We still have tickets - join us! iwp9.org

  14. What's really cool about this year's #IWP9 is that many papers and WIP submissions are around #graphics and #UX - delightful!

    We are going to send out our approvals later, and I promise: the proceedings will be excellent. 👌

  15. Are you planning on going to #IWP9 in Paris?

  16. En route to #IWP9. Very excited, but it’s competing with being very sleepy.

  17. Hey everyone, we're doing this again:
    #IWP9, the International Workshop on Plan 9, is going to happen this very week(end)!

    Keep checking iwp9.org/ for details, such as the schedule.
    We will do our best to provide a smooth live video stream at youtube.com/@plan9foundation.

  18. Last year was the first #IWP9 after a decade long slumber:

    Folks, we're doing this again! We'll be in Philadelphia this time, at Drexel University, for the 10th International Workshop on Plan 9.

    We'll see that we improve the recordings and live streams. So far we're a small team, trying to do our best. Well, if that's not all Plan 9 is nowadays. 🙂

    Go check out iwp9.org for more!

  19. Today is the third and last day of this year's #IWP9 with another 3 great talks starting at 10am EST (in 30 minutes). We'll conclude with another hack session and then get together for a wrap-up. 😃

    See iwp9.org for the live stream, proceedings and more!
