This time of year (end of US Govt Fiscal Year) is a time for reports and such.
As Scott points out, program managers are always under the gun to show that R&D
investments that they have made are “transitioning to operational use” or that

I read on an interview to a scientist on

This sentence seems to imply that serviceability an

You didn't read the full sentence. The keyword is 'commercial' (I added
the emphasis):

serviceability and security
This shouldn't be
Disclaimer:
I didn't read the full report. I was only responding to the quote
included in the original e-mail. It sounds like Gavin was responding to
the whole report, based on subsequent posts.
I'll read the whole report and then post my own obligatory rant.

Hi, C.
Yes, there are many closed source, domain-specific, proprietary tools, and I
like them! Any full HPC stack has many open source pieces as functional
components. One cannot pick what does or does not count.
To this reports defense, it does read as if to reference the near future, a
