I think that's amazing, surprisingly physically nice looking, and now you've gone and reminded me that Plan 9 is an option, which is kinda another tangent I didn't need:), but IIRC Plan 9 is really low resource so it might be a good fit (aside it lending itself to distributed computing). Have you written up the build anywhere?

No, not beyond what I already put in the twitter thread. I wanted to wait until I had some cool distributed software running on it too, but then I ran into trouble with the plan 9 wifi drivers for the rpi being unstable and so I'm still working on fixing that. It does serve as a great test bed for that purpose too, as with 8 nodes I can get much more reliable data about how often the driver gets stuck
