.SH Acknowledgements .PP Ken Thompson created the Plan 9 file server and maintained it for many years. The cached WORM driver is based upon Sean Quinlan's PhD. thesis and prototype. Jim McKie maintained the IBM-PC-dependent code, a thankless job. Bruce Ellis modified the .I 8c compiler in 2004 to generate much faster code for common .I vlong operations, which made the 64-bit file server feasible. Nigel Roles contributed support for the APC UPS and the NCR/Symbios/LSI-Logic SCSI host adaptors. . .SH References .IP [1] Sean Quinlan, ``A Cached WORM File System,'' .I "Software\(emPractice and Experience" , Vol 21., No 12., December 1991, pp. 1289\-1299.
