You would expect an announcement of this magnitude to have been fully structured and communicated before going public, but the overall plan still feels exceptionally murky and lacking in transparency. There have been a few internal AMAs discussions, yet most of the responses have been fairly noncommittal and havent provided much real clarity. [17:42] schestowitz[TR2] The only aspect that appears relatively settled is that a large portion of the Quantum organization will be pushed into the new company.

After dust settle, people can see very easy where certain people and leaders go and what side they land on. [17:42] schestowitz[TR2] If the so-called secret cabal IBM mafia, like many local people call it, still all stay safe and protected inside IBM, then it make rumors look very true that insider group is really running the site. It also show internal politics has always been more important here than merit, fairness, or accountability.
