"The HelenOS project is an effort to develop a complete and usable modern operating system, yet offering room for experimenting and research. HelenOS uses its own microkernel written from scratch and supports SMP, multitasking and multithreading on both 32-bit and 64-bit, little-endian and big-endian processor architectures, among wich are AMD64/EM64T (x86-64), ARM, IA-32, IA-64 (Itanium), 32-bit MIPS, 32-bit PowerPC, SPARC V9 and Xen 3.0. Thanks to the relatively high number of supported architectures and suitable design, HelenOS is extremely-well portable."

i kinda recall plan9 not being free (in both sense of the word) until recently. so im not surprised that it didnt go mainstream.
still, there seems to be more and more stuff from it showing up in linux. i recall reading about p9fs or whatever its called, and maybe that network protocol to.
