IBM open sources it's super computer software

To celebrate completing 10 years with associating itself to the open source operating system Linux, IBM announced the release of open-source software for Linux-based supercomputers. IBM is hoping that this move will encourage the internet connectivity to not only extend the software but also test it thoroughly.

For open source techies, this should be an exciting opportunity. It is not everyday that supercomputer-related programming is open sourced. Looking through it should provide the rare opportunity of understanding the way giants like IBM program for supercomputers.
