I love how the same people who try to drag me towards using Git are the only people who seem to have serious problems working on their code when a website goes down.
But Git is so great because it is so decentralised. Everyone says that. I should use Git, they say, because Git still works offline and it's so decentralised. And doesn't depend on centralised servers like ‘the evil SVN’. Then that shouldn't be a problem for anyone ;-)
Be that as it may, I would like to be constructive for a change:
Why does every distro need yet another package manager? Yay/pacman I get because it seems to build it. Though I don’t understand why, other than AUR. APT is so nice and easy… I hope DNF is the same.
RPM - which DNF uses - is the standard package format for Linux ;-) The problem seems to me to be that every distribution does not attach any importance to something like common standards.
That's not too hard, given that NetBSD is a niche in a niche. But a permanent Plan 9 server account which I do not have to keep running sounds intriguing... thank you!
What happens with the Plan 9 system after the boot camp has ended? From what I can see on that site, their Plan 9 shenanigans will end by mid-September. (SDF is NetBSD-centric AFAIK.)
