I don't know, it seems to much like assuming the mantle of Plan 9, and that... has some negative connotations.

  Aren't a bunch of the Plan9 devs working on Go though?

    Rob Pike and Ken Thompson were not only on the development team for Plan 9, many of the ideas in Go come directly from their work on the Limbo language.

      And Russ Cox (http://swtch.com/~rsc/ http://swtch.com/~rsc/) is the creator of Plan 9 from User Space (http://swtch.com/plan9port/ http://swtch.com/plan9port/).

      Go is also influenced by Ken's Plan 9 C compiler.

    Yes, but they're not calling it Go9.
