Haven't you noticed the pedigree obsession of some in our field?
In this context it adds more signal than noise. There are zillions of open source projects but when you need to use them in production a very small subset of this universe is ready.

#25Are there distributed data stores like this that are also resilient to intentional sabotage? I've been looking recently at long-term digital preservation systems -- tools designed to archive large amounts of data for decades. This is the Library of Alexandria problem -- how do we preserve all this data we're generating against once-in-a-century disasters? So this 2005 paper lists thirteen different threats to long-te…

Does it? I don't think ex-Googlers gives anything of value here.
