NASA's CIO is MIA
Keith’s note: You would think that the NASA Chief Information Officer would at least have something to say about all of this IT hysteria. You would think. The CIO blog has been dormant since October 2012 (no mention of the laptop fiasco either). The incumbent NASA Chief Information Officer, Linda Cureton, is leaving – but she’s still on the job until 4 April 2013 – and there is a staff at the CIO to do things like this. There’s nothing on the NASA Scientific and Technical Information Program blog either. One has to wonder if the CIO is part of the problem or part of the solution.
I’d have to agree Keith. It’s an unfortunate situation with the CIOs not having any real pull at the centers. I never saw much of anything positive come out of Linda Cureton’s reign.
Maybe the CIO could drop in here and talk about Openstack?
