Plan 9 from User Space (aka plan9port)
is a port of many Plan 9 programs from their native

environment to Unix-like operating systems.

Most obviously, plan9port derives from
<a href="http://plan9.bell-labs.com/plan9">Plan 9 from Bell Labs</a>
and would not exist without the work of the Plan 9 team over the
past many years.

Rob Pike suggested the original X11 port of libdraw years ago,
as part of drawterm, and strongly encouraged the Mac OS X work.
He has also been a consistent source of good ideas to hide
the ugliness of modern Unix.

William Josephson handled
<a href="man/man1/troff.html"><i>troff</i>(1)</a>
(with Taj Khattra) and many of
the supporting programs. He also inspired the recent thread library
clean-up and has ported a handful of applications.
<table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width=100%><tr height=10><td></table>
Andrey Mirtchovski and Axel Belinfante have done significant
work dealing with X11 corner cases and fine-tuning
<a href="man/man1/rio.html"><i>rio</i>(1)</a>.
Axel never tires of finding bugs in the SunOS port.
<table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width=100%><tr height=10><td></table>
Latchesar Ionkov has contributed many fixes to tricky bugs, and
got <a href="man/man4/factotum.html"><i>factotum</i>(4)</a> up and running.

Many other people have provided help,
ported programs, written bug reports,
sent useful patches, and gotten plan9port running on new
systems.
