Hi, There's an article here:
http://blog.ksplice.com/2010/03/quadruple-productivity-with-an-intern-army/ that is being discussed on slashdot right now, etc. I'm mentioning it here on sage-devel for two reasons: (1) It's an article about techniques for getting lots of different people to work productively together for a short amount of time on a common project in parallel, which of course we do with the Sage project. It sounds like a month-long Sage days (especially the picture in the article where everybody is crammed into a room coding). (2) The startup company that it is about *is* the company that Tim Abbott (co-?)started; he's the guy who did the Debianization of Sage last year, which we've been discussing lately. By the way, the point of Ksplice is to make it so you can run Linux, install regular security updates to the kernel, but never have to reboot. One can certainly imagine a lot of commercial organizations that would want to use such technology...
