Actually, adding fossil back in to 9front is extremely simple; I have a
branch at https://git.sr.ht/~pixelherodev/plan9 which has fossil
integrated.

The talk I gave at IWP9 was running from fossil on my 9front branch.

If my changes are too extensive compared to 9front (it's a personal
branch, so I wouldn't blame you for thinking that), I'm happy to even
create a branch that's just 9front+fossil. It's really not hard.
