Where is the source code used for the newer plan 9 development? (the foundation said they are participating in google summer of code).
One of the newsgroup moderators probably knows the answer.
@octade @opensource @usenet Thanks @a & @cross! Is this bridged to the 9fans list, or separate?
It is not bridged. Info here: http://9srv.net/comp.os.plan9/index.html
@opensource@lemmy.ml @usenet@lemmy.ml @a@pdx.social @cross@discuss.systems
@octade @opensource @usenet @a @cross Wonderful, thanks!
@octade@soc.octade.net @opensource@lemmy.ml @usenet@lemmy.ml so is this still a 9fans bridge or do I need to find an NNTP client now?
@opensource@lemmy.ml @usenet@lemmy.ml
They are explicitly not running it via 9fans bridge. Access is via NNTP only.
Thunderbird sports a very mature NNTP interface if you have a newer computer. Claws-Mail also has a very good and fast NNTP interface, even on older computers. SLRN is available for a terminal-based interface.
