I have tho it's been a long time. I've still got that CD somewhere. It had a very weird mascotte.
Couldn't hurt to test it again, IIRC it also had a strange wallpaper that sort of divided the screen in two. 
Agreed, I wasn't sure enough if it would generate enough interest. so gave it this test run first. Prolly best to open it to all. Hive mind could be good here.
I prefer that too, actually. Tho cannot remember if it had a builtin search feature. I think thats a cool feature.
you can run it directly in your elive 3.0 desktop, no virtualized, just like a normal app / window 
Hello!
Some interesting points in Plan9... Specially for networks...
As an Amigan, I'm obliged to say "Directory Opus" "Ambient" "MorphOS"... And the mouse, magnified by Amiga ! 
But it's true that it's really possible to make better than the mouse; Currently, I use a mini keyboard with trackball that is usable quite like a game pad and nice, except for writing more than some letters or use soft that needs "real keyboard" as Blender...
An telling about Blender, when I see what is possible with a simple camera in this soft, I think very possible, not necessary with big hardware (even a limited Pi Zero), to use the more-and-more integrated (web)cameras as user interface...
Graphic tablets can be very good too, but I feel that their preferences should be extended (for now, I always had to mix with mouse for a reason or an other)... (And not cheap as can be a mouse)
6d mouse can be a good way, with an adapted desktop (but expensive); Joystick could be too in same case and eventually cheap...
Voice comes possible and contact (non invasive) cerebral sensors too.........
....to be continued....
Salutations!
Never buy cheap utensils, you plan to use often.
Like the man said: If you pay peanuts, you get monkeys. 
Hello!
-Yes, but a 6d mouse, a camera with integrated artificial neurons... can be very expensive! I buy my 6d Spacenavigator mouse (the simplest one) some years ago when Poseïdon, the usb stack for MorphOS, was knowing it (but needs again a driver), and when I had a bit of money left...
-Yes, it's cause I recently buy, in three second hands parts, my M6700 & its Nvidia and have to heat mainly spirulina and bread for a month... 
As interfaces, it's possible as well to deal with very light but efficient partial gloves or pseudo-gloves...
I have many things in head this way, but nowadays without even a minimal workshop, I can't strait go forth... And I have to come back to coding, where I was not so bad as student (specially in complex Grafcet things) but didn't touch it since long time... 
Salutations!
related about rare interfaces:
yeah, I hear you!! 
Years ago I bought an A3 wacom tablet over serial connection. Cost me the current equivalent of $1000,- , which really hurt for a long long time.
Now it's not supported anymore 
though there is a site that explains how to solder it to USB.
but then, my first 2 speed CDrom over parport cost me $500,-. Gahhh!
Computer hardware doesn't actually have a lifespan that allows an acceptable investment plan.
Can you believe a PC I bought in 1999 still shows up in my book keeping as tax deductable.
Don't remind me
how much I spent over the years on hardware.
Just one aspect could make you Imagine:
I owned nearly every Mac model at least once.... 
BTW, Elive had an amazing UX experience in the first versions using the Evidence file manager, did you ever tried it? Evidence -- enlightened file-manager
I tried to use it, years ago. It sure was beautiful. I wanted to love it, but it blew my mind. So different. Wasn't ready...maybe I'll explore again...for now, Nemo and Thunar...
unfortunately it was not ready and it never went, its last release is from 2005 and I don't think that it even compiles right now
beautiful and blowing mind 
@Rebel450 I found some source code for "marlin" (version 0.5) and tried to compile it, but .....
I get all kinds of missing modules I've never heard of or can find when running "cmake".
I suspect that code was never meant for x64. Sorry, but that boat has left. 
Yes, it was surely meant to 32bit (by its age), I guess.
Thanks a lot for your efforts anyway.
Sad.
I need to know a (cheap😉 ) programmer...
