If this is "competition" then you don't get our goals.

I get our goals. Do you think that IBM is going to dissolve itself like 3I did?

Of course not, the only part of your post I disagreed with was the one where you called them competition

"Competition" was my gut reaction, before reading the paper, to IBM becoming involved in this research (I am in the process of reading it now - and will overcome my gut if justified). I'm sure I will have the same gut reaction if I hear that Bill Gates wants to go open source (as in: yeah, what's the catch).

Just trying to post this as a general news/info sort of thing in case anyone was interested.

Do not use this post as information for making any important decisions. The only agreements I ever make are informal and non-binding. Take the same precautions as when dealing with a compromised account, scammer, sockpuppet, etc.

Nothing like a little competition, eh?

Will it be the dinosaurs or the squirrels that populate the new paradigm?

The bigger they are, the harder they fall (hopefully)
