It is still work that ought to be done sooner rather than later. And the header work should be done by someone from IBM. Who might that be? Whoever it is should be doing it already. There is no excuse to delay. BTW - Large software grants go through the incubator. TLPs do this. [1] I think that not clearing the Symphony grant might be a graduation problem for some on the IPMC. It will certainly be discussed.
