Plan9 is not a complete port, and it doesn't even run terribly well.  I have  
the set of CD's here and I'm not impressed.  Aside from that, we cannot use  
Lucent Technologies' code because of the god awful copyright on it.  I might  
be able to write up how Lucent talks to the hardware and someone else could  
reinvent the wheel, however, I need to look into my licenses again cause I  
remember there was something about reengineering efforts and I don't want to  
get into that mess again.

Further discussion of NetBSD/next should be moved to port-next@netbsd.org.

Best regards,
Chris
