Paul,

I am working with the author of omuscd on a 2.6 openmosix port to the
2.6.22Kernel... I need to talk with him some more, but you should
expect that the
openmosix cluster will be picked up by another team.

I just need until this weekend to get things organized. I believe Moshe
underestimates the need for using multicore systems in a massive set and
forget mode so people can do without the overhead of being concerned with
queue and batch management.

We have such a need and are currently building a 40 core farm expected to
grow to the thousands of cores. It is my personal opinion that this
announcement came mostly due to time and resource constraints, not the lack
of a need for SSI style clustering.

Please watch this space in the coming weeks:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/om-2-6

Our intent was originally to provide a source tree where you could download
an x386 x686 x64_86 source that included the omuscd management daemon and
went clean onto a vanilla kernel. I expect that the project will expand.

Sincerely,
Wes Wagner
