QNX used to be fairly popular for real-time and embedded industrial systems,
and those sorts of things have loooooong lifetimes. So even if Blackberry is
the only *new* user of QNX there will be plenty of older systems out there.
OTOH, they're also the sorts of users who really ought to have their own
thorough acceptance tests for software changes, so I doubt they're relying on
CPAN-testers to make sure their industrial robots don't fall over
embarrassingly.
That may be true, but having QNX testing for high-river modules would help with
the bleadperl breaks CPAN project. So, I'd say yes, it'd be great to have more
testing for an OS.
