All: I wanted to thank everyone who helped with the Beowulf Bash Go Fund Me effort. We raised $3070! This amount will really help. Once the financial dust settles, I will report back as to how this amount helped the Bash.
Thanks again to all those who helped. It was a great success. Also,for those that had a chance to see the rough cut of "The Beowulf Disruption: Changing the Course of HPC" at our SC18 Beowulf booth, we are working on the final release. A few more tweaks and it should be ready to go. We will announce it in the coming weeks. It will be released under a Creative Commons license so it can be freely used by (and for) the community. -- Doug > > Everyone: > > This is a difficult email to write.
