I remember an interview with one of the ex-Plan9 people now at Google (Rob Pike maybe?) talking about how he's switched to Linux, since that's what Google runs on, and finds it a strange experience, as if a bunch of bugs you thought you'd fixed 20 years ago have resurfaced in the main branch. But Linux does seem to be picking up a steady number of the features.


It was Rob Pike from the slashdot interview. http://interviews.slashdot.org/story/04/10/18/1153211/rob-pi...


Thanks for the link. (irrelevant: I like how he used wOOd to represent OO programming)
