This article makes it sound like we're caught in a proxy war between IBM and Intel.

Hi folks,

Something called OpenHPC uncloaked at SC, according to folks on the
Easybuild list.

http://www.openhpc.community/

The initial release is based on CentOS 7.1 according to the announcement:

https://groups.io/g/OpenHPC-announce/thread/ohpc_1_0_released/192847?p=,,,0,0,0,0:RecentPostDate,,,20,2,0,192847

Participants list is interesting, both for who is on it (a lot of Intel
vendors, various ISVs and big labs), and also for who is not (yet)
listed there - Mellanox, IBM, AMD & ARM I notice at first blush.

http://www.openhpc.community/about-us/participants/

Interestingly only a few days ago (November 10th) Mellanox (who are not
listed as a member) trademarked "Mellanox OpenHPC".

Amusingly whilst the base is CentOS the members list does not list
Red Hat as a member, but does list SuSE. :-)

All the best,
Chris
