[virtmach] vita nuova announce inferno 3rd edition (fwd)

[Pierpaolo Bernardi]

I think that the following announce may be of interest to VMers.

(It is not explained in the message, but Inferno is an OS based on the DIS
virtual machine, and it [is|will be shortly] available a free binary
version).

I have no connection with Vita Nuova, etc.
